What the green weenies don't take in to account is the massive infrastructure that will be needed to provide charging stations and the supporting paraphernalia to convert to all electric. This also has to be accepted by the public. Conversion to all electric is years away. The logistics alone are mind-boggling.

I posted this in another thread on Friday for my "science" contribution.

I like the hydrogen or propane options better than electric.

Didn't a hydrogen fueling station explode in Norway awhile back?

 

[Stormtrooper1320]

Not sure, but I'm sure it can happen from time to time.

I personally thought hydrogen would be the way forward, but Honda just discontinued their offering due to low sales volume. I think the lack of fueling stations was an issue.
