I do not doubt that the car has and is selling well but it is filling a solid niche market. For those early investors this is going to be a boom market and millions will be made by some and lost by others.

Oh and Particle...you haven't hurt my feelings. I love a good discussion as this one clearly has defined points/sides...there is not right or wrong on talking points. The only problem is, it won't be settled anytime soon.
Sorry if I came across a little strong. I do have strong feelings about electric technology as it has been my passion and job for 15 years. I agree that there are great hurdles to overcome, but this needs to happen.

Our current modes of transportation and some electric power generation methods are simply not sustainable
