Phoenix Motorcars Truck Discussed

Pheonix Motorcars has produced a vehicle that can be recharged from an outlet (a dryer outlet, but that's no big deal), can go 100 miles on a charge, and has all sorts of capacity. Check out the video below, as presented by actor Ed Begley, Jr.:



A lot of folks talk about how electric cars aren't solving anything by pulling their energy directly from the grid, but Bagley hits on the answer to this in the video - he has solar panels which recharge his car. Ergo, this car is completely off the grid and produces no dangerous pollution.

This concept agrees with something I and many others in the environmental movement have said all along: unlike now, when we're totally reliant on oil for so much of our power; the future will need to see us using many diverse forms of energy for our power needs. Naysayers frequently look at an answer such as solar or biofuels, etc., and like to talk about how those solutions can't be the answer because they won't have the capacity for the whole country. The idea of mixing the various systems never seems to occur to them.
