"What Happened To the Electric Car" was a fantastic movie. The car was loved dearly by every owner. The corperations who made them ripped them away out of pure fear of profit loss on God knows what. There was nothing wrong with the design or efficiency. This s**ks

that is the u . s . a .. many human beings have more beneficial than one motor vehicle interior the kin. A truck to haul the toys to the campground or to haul sheets of plywood to make a canines residing house for Fido. A sedan for taking the kin to church or Aunt Martha's. So why couldn't we've a motor vehicle that we force to artwork? The nationwide holiday is 25 miles. nicely interior the selection of maximum electric powered automobiles. charge it at evening at the same time as the flexibility-flowers are shunting extra power to the earth, and the costs are decrease. most of the autos you word on the frenzy hour holiday are occupied with the help of one man or woman besides so a small efficient electric powered motor vehicle for commuting is a wise bypass. i'm investigating making a conversion to electrifying actual one of my autos. And the picture voltaic-voltaic panels will be paid for with the gasoline savings in 5 years.

Cars are machines. They don't know anything about politics. We do ourselves a disservice by politicizing non-political things. This is one of the ways we let powerful interests manipulate us.

Wake up, think for yourselves.

Look at this electric car, called the Phoenix:

*
The car (out next year) will get up to 250 miles per charge, and can be charged in TEN MINUTES. The electricity to drive it costs about one cent per mile. How many people would be interested in this, if they knew about it? Why isn't the news media all over this?
*
It's not perfect, of course. It's too expensive (about $45,000) because not enough people will buy it to pay all the development costs. If people buy these cars, they will get cheaper and cheaper.
*
If you don't have that much money, buy a converted electric car. Cars like this can be had for as little as $5000. You will only get a 50 mile driving range, but that's enough for lots of everyday driving. Aside from this, they are like normal cars. They look like typical cars, and they will do freeway speeds.

By the way, despite some disinfo you may hear, electric cars do not pollute anywhere near what gas cars do. Even if power plants burn dirty fuel, they burn it far more efficiently than your gasoline car burns fuel. Distributing fuel 'by wire' to electric cars is also far more efficient than trucking gas around the country (making more pollution in the process.) And electric motors are far more efficient than gasoline engines. All these efficiency improvements mean more miles can be driven on less fuel, therefore making much less pollution (and cheaper driving.)

we could they worked fine just less profit for the energy dudes.
Another way to be effecient would be to reduce friction in the drive train by cold treating the meshing parts. Some claim to have doubled their mileage in this manner. Aircrafts have been using cold treating for years now.

I loaned mine to Ed Begly and he won't give it back. Diversified sources for energy and transportation are critical for the stability of our great nation the United States of America. I just like the way that sounds the United States of America (sigh).

It will come back, for sure. I think that big oil companies paid auto industry millions to kill the electric car.

Nothing wrong, sure if you only needed to drive less than 100 miles a day and had the time to wait for it to recharge. Like all liberal propaganda, that movie tells only half the story.

Maybe, but we would still have to create the electricity.
