[ausev] AusEV Digest, Vol 31, Issue 9

[Joby Wieser]

Rob, Am I missing something in my calculations? I just paid $5,600 for a VW Beatle converted to a flatbed truck.  I am expecting that the driving costs for electricity and batteries will be around 10 cents per mile.  My doge truck gets 8 mpg which runs 40 cents per mile just for gas. I am spending 200 per month on gas, I can pay for the truck in 3 years at roughly 150/month plus a 36 dollars for operational costs.  After that it will seem almost free.   ROI seems obvious.   Joby
