Personally, I applaud anything that brings new, cleaner tech to the marketplace and to the attention of the public. Yes, it's sad that it takes such "flash" to gain the attention of the celebrity-crazed masses, but that's life. Denigrating things because they aren't perfect solutions doesn't help anyone. I'd much rather see incremental, imperfect solutions than nothing at all.

Mic: nice try. But we live in Half Moon Bay. No public transportation. Nearest mall is 15 miles away. Nearest hospital? Same. Nearest grocery store? Three miles. We have five people living at the house right now. I’m often off doing interviews. I need my car. Maryam needs a car to get around town. There’s no options in my life. It seems to me you’re the arrogant one for thinking you know my lifestyle and how easy it’d be to get rid of a car. I sure would like to, they are extremely expensive.

You need 2 cars?

This is arrogant foolishness.

Make a plan for having one less. That will do wonders for your planetary impact!

So much for the wonders of modern technology.

The main thing I don’t understand about electric cars is that they aren’t really better for the environment. All they do is defer the pollution from the car to the electric generator (which is usually burning coal or natural gas, at least in the US). What is the environmental benefit?

Scoble -

$60,000 for a car?

That might be easy for you to afford, however, the average blog Joe certainly can’t pony up that kind of cash for a set of wheels. Lets face it, their blog just doesn’t monetize as well as yours.

I can’t for the life of me understand why you so vehemently oppose companies like Izea – a company who provides an opportunity for the average blog joe to share the wealth that you so brazenly flaunt.

You should rename your post – Interweb “fat cat” brags to “near do well” readers about plan to buy luxury vehicle.
