[QUOTE="Sidney, post: 520302, member: 30039"] I looked into buying an electric van but to even out the costs between ICE and electric I would need to be doing 50K miles a year for five years to break even. And that doesn't include recharge times adding to my daily trip if I can find an available charger where I would be working. My local town mayor is a massive advocate of electric vehicles and doesn't believe me when I say that Doris doing her weekly two miles trips to the shops in her electric car has a higher carbon footprint that a petrol equivalent. Not to mention the cahrge losses when he vehicle is not in use, even at 1% a day that's nearly 4 charges worth of wasted energy a year. [/QUOTE]
