…but found that there were some limiting issues. Another car I had been intrested in was the Honda FCX Clarity which is a purely hydrogen based car. Main limitation…only available in Southern California due to that is the only location of fueling stations right now. I have no clue how long it will take to make hydrogen refueling stations around the nation a standard.

The other one is something the brother-in-law brought up. The Th!nk car (from Norway) is another option, but like most hybrid vehicles, the problem is the price being too high for what it is. The Th!nk will start at $25,000 for the two seater version. Compare that to the Smart car which starts at $14,000 for the same size. It will take a long time to recover that in gas cost. The other problem I have heard of with battery cars is the expensive cost of battery replacement. One thing I have to give the Th!nk car is this, I love the look of one of their investors…take a gander at Mr. William E. “Willber” James…how could you not trust that face?

All to be played by ear I guess. I have two years to think on it anyway!
