electric auto


Hi everybody. We took a trip to see Hill and on the way back, stopped to try out a GEM electric car! It may look like just an expensive golf cart, but it rides and handles (plus goes a little faster) much better. But, it's not quite what we're looking for. Trying to set up a test drive of a Zap xebra, but there's no dealer near here, so I'm not sure how they'll work that.

Wow, cool! I didn't know you were in the market for an electric car- very cool!

I've been wanting to get an electric motorcycle or scooter.

Actually, what I really want is this: the ENV bike. It's a fuel cell bike, and it sounds awesome to me. Unfortunately, the reality of hydrogen stations (outside of California) is probably a ways off. They say they plan on also selling a home power plant that somehow generates the Hydrogen from natural gas, which would be neat. Particularly since you can actually remove the power core from the bike and (in theory) use it to power other things, potentially your whole house. Now that would be something!

The xebra looks cool, too- I like the blue and the green, but who would want a zebra striped car, honestly?

Let me know how the shopping goes! I'm really intrigued.
