    I'm sure most auto critics and everyone that just hates Detroit vehicles for the sake of hating Detroit vehicles will be lined up to kiss this vehicles ass no matter how well the domestic's EVs do.

Oh come on now. It doesn't HAVE an ass to kiss! But then if I get a second vehicle for those drives to the office (which I COULD do, since I only live 10 miles from my job), it would have to have no ass. I have too many tools in my garage, so any second vehicle must be short. Very short. And narrow. Very narrow.

    @ wave54 11 kWh=1 gallon gasoline (which is commonly quoted as the Gasoline Gallon Equivalent GGE) is not really intended for this type of calculation. Neither is accounting for efficiency (or lack of).

    "25, unless you are willing to walk home." Yeah, I started thinking about that later. My commute is about 22 each way, so it wouldn't work for me. Also, they say 50, but with the way EVs are, it could be half as much depending on conditions and driving style.
