Even with my shortened daily commute the annual cost savings between buying gas for a 30MPG vehicle and charging an electric vehicle during off-peak hours is over $3,000 per year.
The Ford Focus Electric seems the most logical choice for me. Only the Tesla is nicer, only the Leaf is less expensive, and my total daily commute is within the single charge travel distance. My power company is offering $2500 towards installation of a 240VAC home charging station, and I may be able to convice local management at my new work location (electric generating plant) to install electric vehicle charging stations. I am more than a little surprised they don't have any already!
Sure would be nice to be able to drive an electric Saab.
