the big advantage of electric vehicles is that they save gasoline
making us less dependent on a finite resource.


Nonsense.

although i think any only electric vehiicle should be designed to
hitch on a trailer generator in case someone needs to take a really
long trip. generator trailers could be sold or rented for occasional
use


That's the *dumbest* idea you've ever come up with. *...and that takes
some doing!


how so? it makes the all electric vehicle typically used for around
town easy to plug into a tiny trailer for long term trips. owner could
buy trailer or rent it for occasional use..


A trailer? Really? You really are going some to prove just how
stupid you are tonight.

and since very little electric is generated by burning crude oil,
around here its nuclear, coal and natural gas.


With coal being forced into oblivion by your fearless leader. But so
what? Electricity is a particularly dumb mobile power source. Convert
everything else possible away from oil, though. It's cheaper.

anything that uses less crude oil / gasoline is less $$ given to the
arabs who hate us.......


Do *DRILL*. Good Lord. THINK!
