I said something similar in a thread over on ecomodder.com. I got a reply from an extremely knowledgeable guy there who posited that an all-electric vehicle is a valid choice as first car for a majority of folks in the US, based on their daily round trip miles. The gasoline chugging truck with tow hitch becomes second car.
