And what I think of the whole goofy Year 2000 thing. I was leasing a 1997 EV1 for 7 months until it got recalled. GM only made 500 of the 1999 EV1 so the demand is a lot higher than the supply. I'm hoping they will make another 500 or more. Oh yeah - the EV1 is basically an electric 2 seater sports car.
Electric vehicles are really quiet.
Yeah, yeah, there's pollution generated at the power plant to make the power in the first place. But it's much less pollution than producing gas and then burning it in your car. If you're interested in leasing an EV1 then you should contact your local Saturn dealership and have them put you on the waiting list. I'm a little embarassed. But it's kind of cool to be able to tell people about my favorite books and stuff and then actually make some dough if people buy 'em.
