Companies will need to decide if they are in the personal vehicle business or the internal combustion automobile business. Are they Netflix of Blockbuster? Studebaker went from Connestoga wagons to automobiles before dying out to the Big 3. For most it will come down to range and refill time, and things will just trickle along (pun intended) until the chicken and egg dilemma starts to resolve. New York City announced it will build 50 fast charging electric car charging stations at a cost of $10 million. They will recharge current electric cars in 30 minutes. That's better but still too long.

For hydrogen to take off, I think the stumbling block is the amount of electricity it takes to separate the hydrogen from electrolysis of brine.

As long as we can drive it, instead of program it to take us somewhere, it will all be good!
