You raised some good questions. But here's a question that should be asked AND answered by ABC. Why did the auto manufacturers in the US make 'EV's (electric vehicles) and then when the laws in California were changed and they were no longer required to make the EV cars did the manufacturers recall or terminate the leases under which all these EV's were put on the market? Why did GM recall these EV's to Arizona and then CRUNCH the cars? No one watched this happen but one small documentary film maker and the film he made has gone UNNOTICED by the general public.

Tell me ABC, why did Ford recall all their EV's under the premise of not meeting the safety standards for vehicles when in fact the Ford Ranger EV had a BETTER crash rating than the gasoline version of the same vehicle? Why would any serious news reporter let this go unchallenged? This summer our gas prices will top $5.25 a gallon and no news agency will honestly report the existence of a viable alternative to burning gasoline. It's like "Dumb and Dumber" going on and no one will hold the oil companies responsible. What a bunch of Lemmings! America: Turn OFF the gasoline, DEMAND electric vehicles that cost less than $20,000 (because they actually do cost less than that to make)

ABC, it’s time to revisit your efforts to get electric vehicles BACK on the road. It’s time to change our dependancy on Oil. All oil not just foreign oil! Electric cars go 150 to 200 miles per charge, go from Zero to 60 in under 8 seconds and now look good doing so. ABC Execs, help make a wave on this issue and get some things done.
