My late Dad, a civil engineer, used to say the concept of electric cars was great. So simple and robust, just put a motor on each wheel and if one breaks you still have three.
They are a bit more complicated than that it turns out!
If I sold my current 'good' car ('91 420sel) and it brought in enough I'd sure consider an older model S.
I also looked into converting my toy, an old Spitfire, to electric but there's no kit and I just don't have the will to do that custom work (assuming I could actually do it). Plus I read the diff doesn't hold up well to the extra torque .
No matter what when I run a new electrical line to the garage I'm going to way oversize it for future charging.
Here's a guy that dismantles cars. He's awesome. He's torn into many electric cars with good reviews. But check out how many coolant hoses the new 'Mustang' has - a tuneup nightmare!

And the future may still be hydrogen? Stay tuned
