"GM never wanted this car to be a success. The fact that you couldn't buy the car was a testament to that fact. You could only lease it."

Honda is leasing their FCX, you can't buy it. Does that mean Honda doesn't want it to be a success?

I think your answer is different for Honda. Because communist self flagelating idiots like you hate anything American and suck the cock of anything foreign.

Yeah, how dare people with wealth want to hold to their money and invest it.

They should be on a crusade to get rid of their money so that everyone will be equally broke and miserable.

If you are implying that Electric Vehicles do not have Air Conditioning, no more than 30 miles of range, and are incapable of exceeding 70mph then you are sadly mistaken. Modern EV's have all of the amenities as a normal car such as AC and Heat. They can achieve 100 miles or range easily with 200 and 300 miles not uncommon and they can be recharged very quickly if needed. As per power, electric motors are unsurpassed in the torque they can produce, ie: diesel electric freight trains.

Your knowledge of electric vehicles is minute, to say the least. EV's, even in the 90's, were already more efficient than gas cars and got more than 100 miles per charge, top speed 95mph. GM just didn't made any money because the bat pack was too expensive. Fast foward 15 yrs and batteries are now cheaper and much better (courtesy of the cellphone revolution and laptop research) so electrics are just way better than gas cars. Even in the 90's EVs were doomed because of oil lobby.

another killer which is still trying to do so to the tesla sedan, dodge c.ev concept, chevy volt are the magagazines motortrend, car and driver, road and track as well as all others. in road and track the tesla sedan and volt and doge all got bits no bigger than the holley carb ads just like the ev1 back in the 90s and 'jp' mag wote about the wrangler ev concept like it was a yugo. people, write and rant those mags to write bigger articles on those models istead of half assing it.

Your problem is that you are a Canadian who has surrendered to liberalism and the irrational need to hate the USA. I lived in Canada for seven years and i found that the cdns who hate the USA the worst are the fools who have never been to the USA.

You're an ideological idiot who is utterly braindead. Keep going as you are, and you and your second-rate country will be in 'deep shit'.
