Who will make plans now to purchase an extended range vehicle, electric, or hydrogen car by 2013 (5 years)?

Chi Guy

To greatly reduce US dependency on oil?

At this time the $30,000 extended range vehicle (300 Mpg), Aptera (ready in 2010) is on my list. By then their may be more options available.

Also, FORD has accepted my concept for another type of extended range vehicle. After all of the paper work and waivers I signed, I hope that it comes into fruition within the next five years.

Will you make plans (plan your budget) to purchase a high miledge (80 Mpg or more) OR alt fuel vehicle within the next five years?

Honda a few years ago made a CRF 230L. The thing got 90mpg! Weight 260lbs and came in black.

The new one: Honda CRF 250L weighs in at a porky 320 and gets less mpg.

Suzuki makes the DR 200 SE. It weighs in at 278lbs, but it has electric start. They also make a 400cc version.

Yamaha makes the TW 200. It weighs in at 278 and gets 78mpg.

Kawasaki makes the KLX 250S. It weighs in at 297lbs, gets 70mpg and has electric start.

If you got cash, then look at the KTM 350 EXC. This is a motocross bike with lights. It weighs 241lbs and has electric start.

The other motocross bike with lights is the Husqvarna TE 310R. It weights 247lbs and has electric start.

You got me by a few years. I know I am getting tired of kick starting a motorcycle, so you have to be really tired of it. That means you are going to have to go with the Suzuki or the Kawasaki. If you have the money, the KTM and Husqvarna are top of the line bikes. I got a 1982 Honda XL500R that I have to go through a starting ritual on or she won't fire up. It gets old real fast kick that beast over...lol

I would recommend going to the local dealerships and sitting on a bunch of different bikes. This way you can see what is out there and see what fits you best. Hell, I would look for an old late model 1970's 2-stroke enduro just to piss off the neighbors...lol You can find used bikes on Ebay, Craigslist, CycleTrader and BikeFinds.

You keep going old timer.
