1. And what would be the time frame

for the switchover of cars?

I know that electric cars are the future, but right now they're far more expensive than I can afford, and I recently paid cash for a two year old Honda Fit, so I'm hardly the poorest person out there.

Plus, how quickly do any of them recharge? Anything longer than 15 minutes (and I believe several hours is common) and my two times a year trip to Kansas would take four days.

This is an interesting idea, just not feasible.
