Gentlemen, I like your humor and see the present reality behind it.  But my Lincoln hybrid is special.  Fine gas mileage, no plug in, and, so far at least, 4 years of absolute dependability.

@d-m-holcombe I think the hybrid is the best compromise for all types of driving without having to be concerned about recharge availability.  My next car will be a hybrid.

Lol, good one ! People should make up their own minds without government edits and knowing full well where electricity actually comes from.

...over 100 years ago, die-hard horse & buggy owners laughed too. With their deep-seated prejudices, rooted in narrow-minded foresight, simply unwilling or unable to grasp the bigger picture coupled with outright petty grievances, they failed to acknowledge and accept the obvious. Sound familiar?

Nice Chav. Two of my neighbours have this model in the same colour. Both are very pleased with it as it having had it for several months. One had a Tesla S previously.

Ah yes, I just love scratch-dent-dust-dirt-rust-bird-crap-free new cars! Enjoy the "smell," Chav!

I have no problem owning an EV, but it has to be something I want to drive. My tastes are simple, a sporty 2 door hardtop, which is affordable. From what I have been reading, I will likely have to wait until second half of this decade.
