    GP...............generating electricity from coal kills more people than driving gasoline cars does.

    Tesla for me. I would easily sacrifice long twisty drives that occasionally happen over the need for four seats that frequently happens in my life.

    LOL... Never thought of that, but its true! It isn't like a hotel is going to let you run extension cords out to your car on your way out of town!

    Well said!

    GP for me. I won't even buy a car with an automatic, so there's no way I'd have a EZ-GO golf cart with an enclosed cab....

    Not even close. It's hard for me to believe that the GP-1 is, despite what an awesome car it is, the favorite money-no-object daily driver. There must be a car or cars that beat it. Suggestions? What am I missing?

    Not totally sold on electric. Not a good choice except for a daily runner... We don't have the charging facilities to support the technology. When they do build them, I don't have enough time to waste on a 2-4 hour layover in BFE to recharge the dang thing. Fossil fuel burner for now here.
