Obama's cap and trade plan will cause electricity to "skyrocket" those we his words. So with all the emphasis on electric cars what is going to be the cost of charging one up vs. the amount of gas to fill a tank? Anyone know?

Hello wlee, well I can't enlighten you about re chargeable cars but a friend of mine has the only rechargable motorbike in the village and I believe that it only costs peanuts to charge it up, and I saw that from the country in Europe which has the highest electircity costs. The advantages are that it bypasses the fine rule for not wearing a helmet whilst using it as there is no actual law concerning the necessity of wearing one whilst atop an electric vehicle, plus it is quiet.

I don't know, but only certain areas of the country will be able to use these cars, for example, these cars won't do well on ice or snow, so I guess they'll be for California or Florida residents. Nope, no clown car for me!
