I'm leaning towards a hybrid for my next vehicle, probably not a plug-in. I just don't think we have the full infrastructure ready for charging yet. I envision going to visit my parents who wouldn't have a charger or camping or snowboarding in the mountains, and looking for somewhere to charge and then have to wait to charge sounds like such a hassle. Not to mention the cold snaps we get.
It does seem like every auto maker is bringing some new form of alternative powertrain to market though, thats pretty awesome. I know its only a matter of time where there are just as many charge stations as gas stations, but that could be a decade or 2 away.
