Has anyone else seen the documentary? I saw it last weekend and it did make me angry seeing how all the special interests, especially the oil industry, conspired to pull all the leased electric cars off the road and haul them off to the crusher so that not too many people would find out about these cars and demand to buy them. After all, these cars didn't use any oil and the dealerships would hardly make any money from parts and maintenance as there was pretty much nothing to maintain. Yet, these cars (like the EV1 that GM made) were quiet, powerful and could go about a 100 miles on a single charge. As much as I like diesel cars, after seeing this documentary I'd love to have a plugin electric car in my garage to drive to work a few times a week! I think that would be neat and I think it's a big shame that GM and others killed the project. What are your thoughts on this?
