electric vehicles

Does it come with "a case of Corona"?

How many months do you think delivery would be, I did see any place listed as U.S. dealers.

Shammerz don't need no stinkin profit, just ask the Shareholders they'll tell ya.

i'd buy one of them before paying $15,000 for a side by side, or $10,000 for a golf cart, some UTV's are over $25,000. that's just wrong American greed! i've seen the 3 wheeled trucks, and drove one that Cushman made so many of, them things were always falling over!  

John.... i think they heard you talking......... the bed sides FOLD DOWN to make a flatbed.......... bigger tires and a couple more inches ground clearance.

The airport in Fargo had a couple Gem urban cars for pilot cars. The Gems were made in the factory in Fargo. I narrowed one a couple times. It worked well for city driving top speed was around 40mph. More of a hopped up golf cart than an auto but they did have license plates. Only real down side was no air conditioning. Did have a heater I never drove one in the winter so couldn't say weather it was effective or not. The military had a few of the little electric trucks when I was at Tinker we never took them off the flight line but they were very handy as long as they got plugged in on the weekend it was good for the week on a charge.

how about a pickup truck ?

Well buy it already! I can see your in  with her. I'm sure they can help you finger out how to ship it.

19 mph tops and it's considered street legal? Maybe in the downtown areas on 30 mph limit streets, but I doubt it on the open road. $1,200 to $1,600 delivered ain't bad though. What's the undercarriage clearance if you have the specs?

about a year ago, I was traveling in bumper to bumper, 0-40MPH stop and go traffic. I was in the right lane, needed to merge to left. just moving from a stopped period, fellow on left is holding way back, so I flip the turn signal and start to merge over, at same time returning my attention to traffic ahead of me so I do not rear end anyone. Well, despite there being plenty of room for me when I signaled and started across the line, next thing I hear is crunch, crumble, scrape, etc. What the...? look in left mirror and there is a fellow, eyes the size of dinner plates riding up on the Jersey Barrier with me pushing him up as I was merging left. Seems he had taken umbrage with me merging in front of him and had accelerated up to cut me off, except, I didn't see him because I was checking traffic in front of me. Those Prius's do have great acceleration, but, instead of cutting me off at the pass, he got stuck in the pass!!! OK, so now I see the problem, and begin going right, but he is stuck on me and I am dragging him with me, his eyes get bigger! Again, 30-40 MPH so, no biggie, we eventually separate and pull over. I accuse him of exactly what he did, he says it doesn't matter, it will go down as my fault and I am buying him a new car. week or two later, insurance adjuster for my company calls me asking about damage to his car, apparently he is claiming a lot more damage than should be. He says lots of damage on left side of his car, the Jersey Barrier side. The lying weasel! we both had noted, and commented how there was no damage to his left side, his tires had actually followed the foot of the barrier up the wall, and they were the only thing to contact the wall, the tires! that put the car at about a 10-15 degree angle, keeping the side of the car away from the wall.
In any case, I said to adjuster how he said at the time we was going to buy him a new car, but, not to worry, I had taken LOTS of photos of his car! I sent her the pics, never heard anything after that. It takes balls! he saw me taking the pics!

FORD is making a version of the F150 next year that is electric and i believe it has a small motor to run a generator to charge / boost itself when needed... I am not interested, but i would guess electric vehicles will go MAIN STREAM when FORD gets into it big time. .... Heard that GM is also looking into an electric truck, or backing a company that is.
