Folks, I have c onverted ny Ranger to an EV because the production electric car I really wanted wasn't available. I occcasionally show my car, but am always concerned that the limitations of my car are mistaken for the limitations of "Electric Vehicles" in general.
My standard for the best production "Electric Vehicle" yet made is the RAV4 EV. Not to minimize the Tesla Roadster or the E-box, but they are not production vehicles from a major atuo maker, although I would be happy to own or drive either one of them. I choose the RAV4-EV as the standard because it is a "Practical" family vehicle. Something a lot of people can relate to, a sort of "Folks Wagon". The problem is not many people know about it. So to spread the word and make sure anyone looking at my car knows what I consider the real standard is, I have put together a one page 8.5x11 sheet printed on both sides to hand out at events. The document serves as an introduction to the RAV4-EV and recent EV history. I offer it to you in the form of two files, an RTF and A PDF. Print one, then flip the page over and print the other on the back. The beauty is, if you disagreee with it in part, you can modify it to suit your needs. I would be interested if you feel the need to make changes. I might incorporate them in my copy. http://www.evprogress.org/Plug.rtf http://evnut.com/docs/flyers/rav4ev_flyer_arb.pdf Cheers, Al Lococo www.evprogress.org _______________________________________________ Florida EAA mailing list [email protected] http://www.floridaeaa.org
