hahahahah at $500 a month, gas prices as of right now, it would take 3years :1....sure, but I'm not paying 17k right away....that's the difference. Still it is more convenient and comfortable for what I'll be doing.
I found this, but no way in hell I would pay that much for a kit, rather lose a leg or something....

right now i get about 150-175 miles for 20 bucks of super (its about 3.25-3.40 here)
and i put 20 bucks in about every 3 days. so i spend about 220 bucks a month in gas. (for work only) probably around 300 if you count weekends and stuff

Re: New Honda in the Garage......You probably won't like it hahahaha
See I get corrupted easy.....gotta stop searching before getting any ideas......
Yeah I drive right now about 40 miles to work, plus anything else I do in the week and weekend, I have to fill up the tank every 2.5 days, almost 3 times a week, at $45-$50 everytime. So it might be even a little more than $500. The power plus AWD plus the long drives are killing me. It was ok while the gas was around $2-$2.50, but at $3-$3.50 it gets old.
Also now work will be about 70 miles

The only thing that worrys me on the insight is, what happens when the batterys go bad, or the electric motors. I can't see those being cheap at all.

Yeah.. I've seen many people that have gone quite a few miles (almost to 200,000) and didn't have to replace the batteries. And with a few modifications some of them got 85+ LMPG
