I HATE filling up my gas tank! It's like I'm paying to help fund terrorism, increase big oil profits and pollute the environment. ....great.

A plug-in hybrid must be affordable for the masses. Even at 25k it's still too expensive for most.

We have to get off the oil all togheter, or else we're going to end up buying oxigen mask and oxigen tanks in order to drive the oily guzzlers that pollute the air that we breath, unless We sooner than later want to choke in breathing Carbon Monoxide,and all the garbage that we buy and make, and viceversa.

If it is not cheaper, I will do nothing "green". Its a gimic.

Remember that when you plug into 110 volt outlet, to charge the batteries, you are only getting half of the electricity you pay for!!! Electric was great for trolley cars...
