exactly. IMO, if tesla motors made a truck with a bigger battery that would go further and be able to tow, i think it'd sell like wildfire, same with a 4 door sedan.

But everytime a "alternative" energy fuel car is introduced its some extreme design that 95% of the population will never like. I mean look at the prius, yeah 45mpg would be nice, but do you have to look like gay to drive it? I remember I sold a prius to a guy who was in his 40's and married, he plain out said "you know I don't have any reason to look cool anymore, im married, might as well save some money"

Very impressive but not worth the money he would sell it for.

people need to realize what the R&D of vehicles cost and how that translates to price. i remember posting about this a few months ago. for $150,000 and at 200 produced its not bad i think (for people with money out the ass lol)
