Cool if it happens. I note lots of future tense verbs there.

I would guess that something like this uses a variant of the Hummingbird motor.

That would be a great car, but I fear that it'll be something like 100k.  I would like one that could go 55 (good enough for around town) and have a range of 150 miles.

(scooters aren't good for around here due to weather and craziness of drivers)

Have any of you test driven an electric vehicle yet?  I want to go try out an electric scooter soon.

Well now, that would get me back and forth to work nicely!

Which reminds me.........Ford has some interesting new toys in the works for the near future also.

My former nephew is still really close to my son. He is a R&D engineer for Ford. He came through the other day, doing a test road trip of a new un-named vehicle. The body wasn't the finished product but the engine etc......was quite impressive and FAST!!! I have never been a fan of Ford but they now have, the most extreme and abusive test track for trucks, of all full size truck manufacturers. I was impressed.
