Even if it was a wash and an electric car met my needs I would still do it.
I think what you are doing is great. IMO, I'd bet there are many more folks like you who are disgusted with the whole gasoline/oil issue and are taking similar action.
Perhaps these days of record oil prices will one day be remembered as the tipping point from oil to alternative energy.
Good luck! Pictures and build info are now required for this thread!
