I'm not convinced gasoline will get cheaper if anything I think the price will rise as the demand gets lower - but electricity will surely go up and will definitely be on the same scale as gasoline if not more - I would think a charging station will cost more than charging at home - Ontario has several backup hydro stations powered with natural gas just waiting to be fired up and then the added cost of more Hydro employment to meet the demand...the government really doesn't do anything to make it more affordable for us - at the end of the day for myself it needs to be cost effective before I would seriously make the move to invest in it and at my age not sure I will ever own electric...just look at grow op loses

For my daily commute, and the average radiant energy for Markham, I would need about 20m^2 of panels on my roof. Doable.

I'm of the red neck variety... I would love to put a system together (off grid) but just cant grip the how too and want to build it myself - electricity talk just goes over my head - one day I will just start buying stuff and putting it together...

My boss has the plug in Prius, which can run on gas if needed. He went over 2 months without running the engine. His condo won't allow a charger, so he tops up at work drives about 60 - 70 kms a day.
I wasn’t implying fuel would become cheaper, but that if there were less fuel to be taxed-they would be low on revenue and tax something else.
Only thing I would consider would be a hybrid. Solar/wind just aren’t that efficient or worthwhile in our region.
Electrics have incredible thrust, but suffer from heat soak worse that a PD supercharged car, much worse.
