alltimetv.net David Murray may drive the quietest car in North Texas, powered only by a small electric motor, and not creating any emissions. “The most common question I get is, ‘Is this an electric car?’ and then they’re like, “Is it a hybrid?’ Nope, it’s a real electric (car),” Murray said. When his car is low on fuel, Murray simply plugs the power cord into the nearest outlet. “Yeah, just plug it in here. Just a regular old extension cord,” Murray said. The self-described computer geek from Kennedale bought the 1993 Eagle Talon from a junkyard for just 0. “First thing I did when I got the car home was pull the engine out,” Murray said. He then spent about 00 more to convert the gas-guzzler to run on electricity alone, doing all the work himself in his garage at home. “I bought the electric motor and I was like well, I gotta figure out a way to couple it together with the original transmission,” he said. The car can hit 55 mph, driving right past the high prices at gas stations. “I hear people complain about them at work all the time. I just grin,” he said. Murray spends just per month on electricity to charge the batteries — enough to go about 300 miles. “I don’t even look at the gas prices,” Murray said. . http electric car david murray free energy alternative fuel hybrid

Why not adding a small gas engine to recharge batteries?
Finally somebody who understands!!!
Electric cars and hybrids are just as polluting as patrol ones!!!
In fact; they allready did the same damage to the environment, while new in the showroom as a comparison patrol vehicle will do in about 100.000 miles!!!!!!!!
Believe it or not, I know it’s the truth!!
Externalities can not be taken into consideration!
now all children not just the deaf kids in suburbia can be ran over by these cars i was almost ran down by some hippie in a prius in a parking lot once it scared me lets do away with these new age crazy technologies and stick to the gas guzzlers
3 hours to charge….20 miles…..55mph…..not good enough man
*acceleration 
lets build a small nuclear engine like in the iron man movie :P 
If Im only gonna go 20 mile on a single charge needing to go 40 mile to work, I might as well save $750+&4000+$7 a month and walk my ass to dc every day. Shiiiit. Looks like I’m filling up the tbird tomorrow.
so true, thats another reason why we see cars that have a lifespan of 10 years max, the business is in parts, repair and getting you to buy buy buy, another car, which is another loan for you to be in debt with and have to pay off. this ensure the economic slave will remain at work over and over……We should work when needed, when we need supplies, etc but not year round. Companies like the endless supply of labor.
People still don´t realise that the electric car produces contaminations with the batteries. What we need is the H20 car right now, stop telling people electric cars do not damage the environment cause they do!
Rev. Gadget had a car that would go 250 miles between charges and that was in ’07. Said he was working on one that would go 500 miles, at 70mph.
Well, I’m out. 35 mile round trip commute. And I dont think the boss would think too highly of an extension cord stretched from the parking lot to the building.
Battery Tech is currently advanced enough to provide enough energy for daily commuting. How often does an average person really go further than 100 miles in a day. According to the DOT not many. Society will have to adapt its thinking. Renting a car for those times to visit grandma and an electric daily commuter is a more efficient means of transportation.
@SuperAngelwalker
300miles per gallon equivalent. MPGe.
@SuperAngelwalker My Bronco II actually gets 320 miles to a tank (20 gallon tank though). Used to get up to 400 miles to a tank but its in desperate need of a tune-up.
I bet,you, my friend, are even a SLAVE TO DEBT? do you owe anyone? I OWE,I OWE,I OWE,so off to work I Go.THE BANKS AND THE CAR MAKERS ,NEVER WANT YOU OUT OF DEBT,MY FRIEND.
Still Ur whole roof wouldnt have enough square feet for to run your car 200 miles a day and thats what we need.
dont get me wrong im pro electric cars but jumping the gun could end in it beeing thrown over board for something like the hydrogen car. my way would be:
solve the problem of produceing mass energie and then we can start building stuff that uses that energy..
Alot of people will have solar panels or wind turbines already at mind, i don’t think there going to buy a ev just so coal and gas power plants would use more resources? People are even putting solar panels on there garage roofs just to charge there ev’s :) Batteries can be recylce and used.
Well there the best we can do for now, I hear of a battery being developed that has “nano cells” and is suppost to be way more eficient that lithium ion batteries, the downside is there going to be way more expensive :(
Sure is, that’s why I love electrics, and you can make pretty mean machines out of them. Too bad batteries suck.
No they haven’t… batteries still suck on range. Imagine taking a road trip in an electric, you are not going to get very far!
Then try to commute more than 20 miles….
True that, but how many of us can afford a v12?
but it sounds lame as it accelerates nothing like the roar of a v12
he is a fucking asshole
