  1. Plugin to American power instead of the 60% imported oil each day. CalCars.org has shown how easy it is. I did it to my 05 prius and it’s better than a 2012 that isn’t even out yet and cost 1/2 as much. REcycle REuse and REthink what we do each day.


  2. reduce so much unnecessary suffering when the price of [imported] oil shoots up. DO PEOPLE REALIZE THE URGENCY OF THIS?! THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE YESTERDAY! GAS LOOKS LIKELY TO BE HEADING FOR TRIPLE DIGITS, AND THE AVERAGE CITIZEN APPEARS COMPLACENT. VERY QUICKLY AND TRAUMATICALLY A SURGE IN OIL PRICES WOULD LIKELY SEND CONSUMER CONFIDENCE INTO THE TOILET, AND THE COUNTRY INTO A DOUBLE DIP DEPRESSION.

    IS THERE SOME SORT OF DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGN OBSTRUCTING THIS OBVIOUS IDEA? AN EV CONVERSION WOULD BE A MOST SENSIBLE SECOND VEHICLE WHEN THE BIG CRISIS HITS! IT WOULD AT LEAST MITIGATE THE TRAUMA FOR MILLIONS!
