Re: Cash for clunkers bill!
Also, a question I have been thinking about, (I know very little about the subject mind you) is exactly how long do the battery packs last in these "hybrid" and electric cars? If it is currently only 5 years, like most regular car batteries, then what? You can't rebuild them like a car engine can you? You have to buy a whole new pack I'm guessing. So then what happens to the old battery pack? What are the by-products produced from the manufacturing/recycling of these battery packs compared to me rebuilding my old 305 V-6?
Food for thought.....I think I am going to start doing my research.
