The future is electric cars

[Harry T]

Bearing in mind the recent media interest in all-electric cars, what are your thoughts? Me personally, I have seen the Hybrids that Toyota are producing, and asking a few Taxi drivers that run them they seem to have nothing but praise for them. Me, I will have to wait until the price comes down. I think the Car Manufacturers have dragged their feet for far too long in converting to electric vehicles.

They seem a good idea at the moment, cheap to run. But the government is going to have to get fuel revenue back.
