ShawnHHave you ever seen the movie "Who killed the electric car" It explains a lot about why things are the way they are. Basically you have a vehicle that requires little or no Maint, has no need for 80% of fuel related infrastructure, has a fuel source that can be generated at home (read as untaxable), and would starve the federal govt of revenue.
