    Wow.. I had no idea that battery powered cars had come so far.. "95 m.p.h. while carrying five passengers and a full payload" thats incredible... I thought capability like that was the stuff of ten years from now... Kudos to the engineers at phoenix

    My wife and I test drove this truck in November 2007. That's all it took. Great ride, tremendous power, 0 - 70 in 7 seconds by my rough count. We ordered one on the spot. The glider was delivered in June. It's beautiful blue! We should be taking delivery in early '09. The wait has been difficult as I'm not known for my patience. Leaving a better planet for my kids and grandkids has been the focus though and once we have it the wait will have been well worth it. I commute 71 miles each way to work so between gas and bridge tolls we will be saving 350.00 to 700.00 and month, (depending on gas prices at the time). Our Nation needs to be free from oil, foreign and domestic. In 2008 the amount of money we send to Saudi Arabia for oil will have exceeded what we spend on defense which means we are funding both sides of the war on terror, our side and theirs. Nice of us isn't it. It's what I call unpatriotic and best and self destructive at worst. The future is here. It's expensive right now, but so worth it. Hopefully "first adopters" like us can eventually make this technology cheaper for the masses as quantities go up. In the meantime, if we're going to commit taxpayer dollars to auto companies why don't we commit to companies like Phoenix Motorcars instead of tired old companies that have fought tooth and nail against this technology.
