As I often tell folks, I can buy lots of gas with that car payment I'm not making. Too bad that's so.

Yes, that's too steep for me too. Initially it will be a statement car for the people who need to let you know that they are doing their part in saving the planet. Eventually prices for these kinds of cars will drop. 10-20 years they will have the price to a point where it is very competitive with traditional engines, at that point they will start phasing out production of the gas only engine vehicles. Least that's what I'm thinking.
