If I got the option to buy the car it would be more reasonable, but the car just goes away. Like the EV-1 it just seems like they don't have a fully squared away product.

So it really does seem like you're paying to Guinea Pig for a test mule program.

It's a little arrogant to me.
ehhh. at least you admit it.

And its going away for the same reason that the EV-1 and the Mini E did. They dont plan on making spare parts for it so under US law they arent allowed to sell them.

Which I always felt was a stupid thing. What if I sign some kind of I know the risks so let me keep the car form?


I hate it when the government babies me.


Im just saying that reletively speaking the car will be next to free. Especially for my pops, whose current daily is a 302 Mountaineer.
