Who the FUCK Killed that electric car?

This subject has been a passion of mine since I was a kid. Why do we still have a 200 year old technology that is really bad for the environment and for political stability running most of our lives?
Imagine a world where you go home, you plug your car into the wall wich gets most of its power from the solar panels you have on your roof, you would be driving for free!

I say screw waiting for big business and gov to give us this option lets do it our selves.
here are some great links to make your own electric car and companies that are making them.
