3. How dare you try to be reasonable!(snarcasm)
I personally would drive one if (a) I could afford it (b) it had a range of a mininum 240 miles. Which would mean we would have to have a hybrid. We priced Prius when we bought the Nissan Versa, that was about 8g more and we could not afford payments or get financing for one.

My partner drives 45 miles each way to work and since we have one car and days when I have to go to dr which is 45 miles in another direction, then 45 miles to home and then 45 miles back to pu him from work it adds up. If it had some built in solar panels to help recharge and it could charge when I get home to rest up for the return trip to his work. Then there are days when I have to do other running around because I make every trip count with other errands. Moving closer to town is out of the question since we cannot afford what we have here then.
