    First all-electric car arrives : The Issaquah Press - News, Sports, Classifieds in Issaquah, WA

    Quoted: The charging hose actually came a couple months ago. So now, he can park the Tesla in the garage and have it recharged by solar-generated power after only two or three hours. Even if the driver should exceed the 240-mile range (where most other hybrid electric cars have only a 40-50 mile range), the car comes with a backup battery to provide a few extra miles so it doesn’t completely leave the owner stranded.

      Looks fun... with cheapening gas prices, it might take a bit for this to gain traction. No pun intended.

      The Tesla is a really nice concept car. Too bad they are so incredibly expensive!
