When will someone make a decent EV?
I drive only 5-20 miles a day, but part of that is on the highway at 70 mph. I need an electric car that can do decent speed, but I don't have 0,000 for a Tesla.
When are the major manufacturers going to sever this incestuous relationship they have with the oil companies and start selling what folks like me need?
I'll probably always have a fueled vehicle – nitrogen gas or hydrogen or fuel cell or biodiesel or even (gasp) gasoline – for long distance trips and hauling the family.
But for my daily drives to work and back, I don't need capacity, or even much range, just reliability and speed. And I don't seem to be alone – there are a lot of drivers on the road with me who are alone in their cars.
Does anyone have an idea when we might see a real "plug-in" car?

Does no one read the question? "Someday" is no answer, and neither is "no demand" and neither is "try a search." If anyone has an idea, please let me know, but if you haven't a clue, keep your comments, please.
What about alternative fuel motorcycles?
Would you be interested in bikes that run on E85?
What about one that runs on biodiesel?
What about one that runs on a hydrogen fuel cell?
What about electric or other than can be fueled with solar?
Or will you ride gasoline and only gasoline bikes?
