I recently bought an electric car and I'm loving it. I would recommend getting one. I charge it at night and it can go all over town. We recently took a long trip too. It definitely took more time than it would have in a gas car but we just ate while the car charged and that worked out awesome since we needed to eat anyways.
My daughter fell asleep as we were reaching a destination. I could just leave the AC waiting for her to wake up on without causing any noise nor carbon dioxide.
