Current Electric Cars

Great idea for electric car and truck Al Gore types (except Gore doesn't own a electric car) out there thinking they are saving the planet.

We are not those people, actually our Dodge truck 4 wheel drive crew cab 2500 with a 6.7 diesel engine has to be Emission Tested Every Year here in AZ.
Cost is $25. extra and then the cost of your yearly registration is another cost. 
It is a Scam to collect more money for the County.

So, it the Counties in America that order their drivers to have an Emissions Test (cost is Extra) before they can renew their registration, start losing that extra income then they'll have to close down that service and lay-off all those employees.
They'll need to go to the voters and raise some form of tax.

That may be another reason that a Electric Car or two in every garage in America is NOT going to happen. JMHO
Plus if they ever did actually switch over our Semi Tractor-Trailers heavy haulers to all Electric Engines, all our Weight Station in America for weighing the loads on the big trucks Steering tires, drive tires and then the tires on the trailers axles would have to be changed in some way, just think how heavy those electric drive motors on each drive tire (there are actually two drive axles  when you engage the second differential for 8 wheel drive in snow and ice) would be and not to mention the batteries.

Our CB was in the upper compartment. 
Just our Humble opinion

Did that thing have a fuller gear box ? ok for driving on the roads but not so good in towns. To be honest I hate fuller gear boxes
