[QUOTE="Chris, post: 421329, member: 1"] I agree completely. I tell my wife this all the time. Manufacturers of everything are making them so they are disposable. Home appliances are another perfect example. They don't want you repairing your refrigerator or oven. They are so complicated now that when they go bad, it's the same cost to repair them as it is to buy a new one (we went through this once with our fridge), and therefore people just dispose of them and buy a new one. It's the same thing with cars. No one can fix them anymore, so when they break, you either take it in to get repaired (and pay a small fortune), or you buy a new one to replace it. I think the electric thing works great for commuting, but for an off-road vehicle, I'm not sold on it. It adds a tremendous amount of complexity, which isn't your friend when you're off-roading.
