Your new electric car<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll admit it &#8211; when I first saw photos of electric cars, I was not impressed. \u00a0Many of them seemed smaller than my parents&#8217; golf cart, which I do like driving around, incidentally. \u00a0Beyond the size, they were just plain ugly. \u00a0Take a look at the car on the right, and you&#8217;ll have to agree with me\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Electric_car\">http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Electric_car<\/a>. \u00a0To make it worse, they just appeared unsafe. \u00a0One crash with a light post or a cow and your car gets squished as a Coke can. \u00a0I never took these things seriously. Cheap electricity. Your new electric car.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New, Better and Interesting &#8211; Cheap Electricity. Your New Electric Car<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Pay Less For Electricity<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>However, designs have improved and are now more attractive and roomier\u00a0http:\/\/www.greencarreports.com\/news\/electric-cars. \u00a0With those issues solved, I must admit to being curious. \u00a0What would it be like to have one of them around my home? \u00a0The U.S. government has a nifty little chart that lays out the &#8220;fuel economy&#8221;, the cost to drive 25 miles, miles on a charge, time to charge the battery and annual &#8220;fuel cost&#8221; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fueleconomy.gov\/feg\/evsbs.shtml\">http:\/\/www.fueleconomy.gov\/feg\/evsbs.shtml<\/a>. \u00a0It&#8217;s kind of intriguing.<\/p>\n<p>According to Nissan, their LEAF can go 84 miles on a single charge. \u00a0With the average American driving only 33 miles\/day \u00a0http:\/\/www.nissanusa.com\/electric-cars\/leaf\/charging-range\/, it&#8217;s not hard to see the possibilities. \u00a0Of course, that won&#8217;t convince the poor guys who commute between Dallas and Fort Worth every day. \u00a0Who wants to run out of battery power in the middle of I-30 at 5:30 pm?<\/p>\n<p>They also throw out a $600\/year &#8220;fuel cost&#8221;. \u00a0I spend $30\/week on old-fashioned gas, or about $120\/month. \u00a0Ouch. \u00a0The electric car would cut my &#8220;fuel cost&#8221; more than in half. \u00a0That&#8217;s information I can appreciate. Cheap electricity. Your new electric car.<\/p>\n<p>Sooner or later oil will become a thing of the past, and everyone will have an electric car in their garage. \u00a0Gas stations will vanish and be replaced by charging stations. \u00a0Can you imagine that? \u00a0It&#8217;s anyone&#8217;s guess how utility companies like\u00a0<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong>Electricity Express<\/strong>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #808080;\">will be impacted. \u00a0But I&#8217;m sure we will be leading the way, making the transition easier and more affordable for everyone. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Cheapest electricity service in Texas<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/electricityexpress.com\/en\/power-blog\/\">Check our Power Blog for more ideas on how to save energy<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>No Deposit Electricity Texas<\/h4>\n<p><strong>855-781-6970<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/account.paylesspower.com\/enroll\/750778\">Energy plans and sign-ups, click here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheaper Home Electricity &#8211; Cheap Electricity.
