Go for it. Electric cars are the future. Power will get easier to make and store. Once they solve the range issue there won't be a good reason for the average grocery getter to not be electric. I imagine right now most people could drive them as my daily commute is 2 miles and my weekly trip into the city is about 130 miles total. How often does anyone drive further than that? A few times a year I drive to Omaha(150 miles one way) and I could rent a car if my tiny town had rentals. The 2XX mile range on a lot of electric cars wouldn't limit most people in any meaningful way. I choose to stick with my gas burner cuz it's fun. If an electric swap becomes practical and manageable in the future, I'd throw it in there instead of the boxer
