We had friends who drove their prius from Detroit to Denver and back ...
bragged a out getting a million miles per breath of gas.. then they had to
spend $10K for new battery.

My big worry with electric cars is when the battery life ends what will the car
companies do with them? Right now they say they have a plan to recycle them. I
call BS on that one. We all know they will do what is cheapest & they will end
up in the nearest landfill. That will cause no end of contamination to soil,
water & air. I do not trust that the auto industry will do what is good for the
planet, only their bottom line. Jane

I had one more thought on electric vehicles. What happens if you want to
drive at night or on a cloudy day? Here's a solution, put small windmills on
the vehicles. Then that part of the problem is solved. Mike On Thursday, March

That's a great ideal Mike, but you are just a little late to the party.
Hyundai is already doing this:
Hyundai launches first car with solar roof charging system
Hyundai’s solar car roof isn’t as dumb as it sounds
Oh, ya, Kia is in on this too:

electric vehicles lately, I don't know why. I came up with an idea to make
recharging the battery. It's simple. Just put solar panels on top of them.
That won't work on convertibles, but how many of them are there. Just
remember, you heard it here first, from me. MikeTo post, send email to
