Hot danged!!!
Accordin' to an article in this mornin's Washington Post entitled "An Electric Car With Juice" a Silivon Valley company is introducing a new electric roadster capable of acceleratin' from zero to 60 mph in 4 seconds!!!
Yezzir. yezzir, yezzir...
Yes, and the new Tesla roadster goes on sale this week for a mere 100 grand!!!
Tad too pricey fir this ol' hillbilly but, all in all, it's a fine day for the electric car industry...
Heck, maybe they'll throw in a couple extra batteries in one and take on NASCAR??? Wouldn't that be something??? Of course the thing would have to have a big boom box wired into it to make real race car noise to keep Bubba happy...
