But if you want to visit Spokane, and are willing to get a trike endorsement on your WA driver's license, I'll let you drive The Snail. It's licensed as a three-wheel motorcycle so requires a trike endorsement to drive. I'll take a pass on the beer(s) though. I'm a teetotaler. The Mitsubishi MiEV pictured above appears to be a concept vehicle, since it's not listed on the Mitsubishi web site. A Google search provided several hits on news items with varying specifications. I won't call it vaporware. Mitsubishi is in an excellent position to bring a car like this to market. But it does not appear to be available now.

My Car: 2008 Prius Package: #3 Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 2 | it's been a long time ... since this thread was updated .... actually, the photo of the Mitsubishi isn't TOO "ugly"; i MIGHT consider something like that in an all-electric / local driving only vehicle ... but i wonder if anyone in these forums has actually come up with a photo of the Nissan electric car scheduled for availability here - in U.S.A. - in 2010. i have found a video of "a" Nissan Electric vehicle - the "PIVO" ... but CAN'T imagine that it's going to be "the one" available in 2010. to me, it looks like a goldfish-bowl on a wide roller-skate! also ... i JUST read that TESLA is planning to come out with two all-electric "sedans" in the not-too-distant future; POSSIBLE cost of the less expensive one ... about $30,000 .....
