There are many charging stations out in southern California from what I
hear on the EV discussion list. Many people do their own conversions. It
would offend many people for me to say so, but all of the electric
vehicles available commercially are small "golf cart" type light weight
low speed cars. Once the political spectrum changed regarding
emissions-free vehicles, car manufacturers called in all of their EVs to
be crushed. The Toyota 4-Runner EV made it out "alive" I believe. The
EV1 (any others?) got crushed. The amount of money required has brought
many good-hearted manufacturing startup ideas back down to the ground.
