Toyota & Tesla Team Up on Electric Cars in Cali

So ... how does that strike you:
"OMG ... we're DOOMED"
or
"We will figure out a remedy"

Seems to me that the only thing going on here is that folks are showing whether they are glass half empty or glass half full thinkers

Gawd forbid someone here ask another question, like:

"How does one stop vandalism to chargers?" . . . again:
"OMG ... we're DOOMED"
or
"We will figure it out".



.

 

A most interesting discussion .... I have read each post. I like the encouragement to be imaginative, and I am confident that in time, most of the charging issues will be resolved. However, I am also positive that when politicians see tax income decrease with lower gasoline consumption ... they will find ways to correct that deficiency as well.

PS ... I sure do like the pictures I have seen of the Tesla S. I hope that will become a reality some day soon.

 

Just saw a new article on the Toyota / Tesla venture:

" 'Toyesla' RAV4 EV, the Toyota/Tesla lovechild of the reborn Toyota RAV4 EV will be debuted at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show, this November."
