I would love an electric car but today reinforced that I need one that is big enough to carry 4 people and a hundred pound dog plus all our stuff for a 4 day trip 250 km away at minus 17. Until that is something I can buy for under $60,000 I won't be in the market.
We have a mid size suv and until the kids and dog are gone anything smaller just wouldn't work for our lifestyle.
And this doesn't even touch the summer when it would have to be a pickup that can tow a trailer 200 plus km then have a place to charge itself for the excursions and trip home.
Don't get me wrong, as soon as all of this is feasible I'll be first in line and I'd also love to have a small electric car to commute in but it just makes no financial sense.
