LEVs+vs+SUVs

Many SUV comics, where is LEV humor?


We need some cartoons or photos that reinforce the alternative message: you can use a bike or a larger LEV like an OT ELF to do many local tasks! There are many comics chastising use of a great deal of energy while engaging in tree-hugging activities such as planting a tree as lampooned in the comic above. We are looking for more photos and stories to reinforce the message:
 * // eBikes and other LEVs, especially the BFER velomobiles, are valuable, alternative transportation for many everyday tasks! //

Thanks to the OT ELF community and members of the Central NC TEVA group, some comics appear below.

Market vs Government in EVs Comic
From Henry Payne in the Detroit News. EV owners understand this on at least two levels: literal connectors issues and the policy disconnect between the market uptake and many government agencies zeal to promote EVs over gasoline vehicles.



Flintstones and the EV
From the Rag Blog by Bill Freeland (oops, can you spot the goof?)

OT ELF for Recycling Trips
Here is a photo of ELF #66 during a trip to the neighborhood recycling center. I should have taken a photo of it loaded up with paper, magazine, and plastics! Remember, the OT ELF is approx 8' long and weighs in at under 150lb. The US$4995 base //DOES// include batteries, so no US$45/mo additional fee here as noted below with the Twizy.

Best Selling EV in Europe: Twizy
Here is the Renault Twizy, which in 2012 was the best selling EV in Europe. At 7' 7" long and 1000lb, the Twizy is a foot shorter than the ForteTwo and over 1000lb lighter. In Europe it is selling for just under US$10,000, but batteries are //not included,// they are leased instead for US$45/mo.
