From The Department Of "Hey, Tucker, We Missed Ya"

...comes Martin Eberhard, CEO of Tesla Motors.



He's producing an electric car that gets comparable performance to gasoline cars, can plug in anywhere, can run 250 miles on a single charge, and - wait for it - costs about 1 cent a mile.



According to the article, currently the cars are (obviously) wildly expensive, but they have plans to get a family version at a reasonable price onto the street in three years.



Two things:



One, tell me I didn't say something about this already. Several times, even.



Two, anyone want to place bets on how fast the oil companies will shut this down?



(*A note: if "Who's Tucker" gets too many votes, I will do a post about the guy so you know. Don't be afraid to vote for it if you don't know.)
