TDW,

The new breed of EVs offer a range equivalent to six days of driving for the average car owner. This meets most folks' needs. If you really crave range then a hybrid vehicle is your obvious choice. A vehicle purchase is a personal decision. I have been subjected to repeated and long arguments from buddies about the relative merits of Chevy and Ford pickup trucks. Buy the vehicle that you want and enjoy it. Trying to tell people who want a 21st century technology car not to buy one is a waste of your time.
