When i started this thread, I wasn't a greenie by any idea. I been fastinated by electric cars. I know the short term answer for oil independance, is home drilling. Now if the government would get off the green horse and fix things in the economy, we could see middle east independance, then invest in green tech

down here in arizona you would think solar energy would be a top priority with over 300 days of sunshine per year....
but no...its something I dont understand. At present it would cost me about $40k to install a 4kw solar syestem on my house I would love to do this but it would take over 10 yrs to see the cost benifits and when the average home buyer will stay in thier home for 5yrs it doesnt make much sense...the government does offer some kickbacks but that cost needs to come down under $20k for me to consider it
