WOW is all I can say. Tesla Motors has a new electric roadster with 250 mile range that goes 0-60 in 4 seconds! It's still a bit steep at $80K but I imagine the price will come down over the next few years...http://www.teslamotors.com/
They say they will have another model in a year or two that will be much less expensive.

The average joe drives about 15,000 miles a year in a car that averages 20mpg...- at $3.00 a gallon it adds up to around $2250/year for fuel.....I'd like to see a model for around 25-30K.
