Living in between Indianapolis and Bloomington Indiana. Summers are hot but not long lived. Most trips to either place can be less than 60 miles including misc. errands. Not a lot of pro electric around here, mostly Ram 2500 trucks etc. so I would be in the minority. Lots of Prius though so there is hope. I know the 2013 will have some upgrades and improvements but until it comes out, I am going to be checking the board every day for any news. I love the idea that there will be no oil, or gas. The plug in Prius and the Prius C is attractive but I just don't like the idea anymore of even owning something that has oil and gas in it.
