We have lots of coal. Not that we don't have oil, but we are actually mining the coal. So, in effect, it is cheaper. In addition. We have lots of coal.

With computers and cell phones and tvs and all of the other digital devices that we are plugging in all the time, adding a car will probably not make a noticeable difference. I don't really know that for sure because I have no idea what kind of a drain these cars would make on your electricity. It very well could put us into a different crisis...but it's better than the NO solution that we currently have.

Or in some cases nuclear energy which creates radio-active waste. Hmm I could be wrong, but I don't think electric is THE solution, unless we all begin to use water or wind energy for electricity.
