    i suppose it might be worthwhile to manufacturers, but they likely think their own research is sufficient, if not superior.
    and honestly, who is even thinking about making ev's in this environment. at least in the u.s.

    Well that's some stiff opposition...

    Yet I suppose that CleanTechnica and PriusChat have some common goals. One of our leaders here might convince one of theirs to guest post on what they do in general, and how this EV survey fits into the mission.

    a survey of gas drivers might be more enlightening.

    Why? We already know they want more fuel efficient cars, but not if they have to pay for it.

    I wouldn't mind having a 100mpg - 40' RV pulling a 25' toy hauler. The Pusher would run on french fry grease, & all the quads in the trailer would be EV. Then I woke up.

    I have a second, disposable e-mail account and got the 30 page report. Nothing there that surprised me and not even close to $500 value.

    Better than losing it when sitting down.

    @16. Da Man!

    OK lads and lasses. PriusChat has arguably the broadest consumer-level knowledge and interest database on Earth concerning the most successful hybrid vehicle so far. Can that not be made into useful piles and put up for sale?
