   If I had two cars, one would be an EV.  I have a hybrid.   
      
   Problem with EV is limited range.  A couple of times a year I do some   
   high miles days, like 900+.  Present cars would take a long time to   
   charge.  Aside from that, the few hundred miles if fine and I'd home   
   charge.
