Friend in Frisco Bay area bought a Leaf for his wife to drive to work.
There were no charging stations in her work area but under county law,
electric vehicles could drive in the inside bus lane which let her
avoid the stop and go of morning and evening traffic, and she could make
it to work
Depending on how much extra capacity she needs a small generator might make
sense. I've got a 1200w 2 stroke generator that will run 8 hours at 50% load
with 1 gallon of gas. It wouldn't make a huge difference but if she only needed
a little more...
Sounds like her commute was iffy for the car
I think its trading good press to my employer for being green for a little free
electricity. Actually I'm willing to pay for the electricity anyway, we're only
talking maybe $20/wk.
The charging stations take a credit card, or at least the ones I've seen at gas
stations and the airport do.
I wondered what effect the AC would have, since that is pretty much mandatory

Braking - yes, at some level. Those of us who are familiar with

braking caused by the restriction of air passing through the
