Hi All;
Wow! I'm impressed! This thread goes on an' on! Like above hiding it
away IS theft! Don't ya think GM can afford the lawyers to make this a water
and air tite case? I think, my two watts worth, is some organization of EV-1
owners, the EV-1 Club? To lobby CARB, or a environmental type ORG, Sierra
Club, ya got yur ears on? The Concerned Scientists group. Nastional Cancer
Societry.Greenpiece? Give GM a bunch of lousy publicity. That is something
they would hear, "What's good for the Country is good for GM" Maybe?
I agree, the EV-1 is an Awesome car! It is worth a fight to save it. To
get it back into production, EVen if GM hassta be bought out, to save the
car from the crusher. Read the new Current EVents, Mike Hoskinson's trip,
for a week, renting an EV-1 .Guess ya gotta go out west, plan a vacation
around having an EV-1 for yur "Own" dor a few daze! While ya still can.
Same feeling of helplessness with the Think, another way cool car. Have
driven that, too. Cute as hell, and really useful concept. A Gofur car,
station car. A Just- go-EVerywhere sorta car. Is that wrapped up tite
leasewise as the EV-1? What will happen to all the ones out here when the
leases are up? Would Ford sell them, or reel them back to crush them?
My bottom line here; is to get Enviro groups to lobby for saving the
cars out there, anfd getting them in production again.
Maybe a gas shortage, with this upcoming war with Iraq, some, Just SOME
thoughts on energy independance here at home. Not likely, though, with the
best Congress money can buy. I won't hold my breath!
Keep doin' Show an' tell, do yur conversions and hope for better times!
Seeya
Bob....one car at a time!
