*87 Jeep Wagoneer still looks good


US Canada Canadian British Columbia

This is a great 4 cyl. about town jeep with 238K. Just the thing for ease in the snow and the odd 4x4 venture on logging roads. The economical 4 cyl is not designed for freeway passing but you can stay in the right lane. I like the looks and did have the chance to sell it a couple of times when I was*nt in the mood, but now I am in the mood and have reduced it from $2900 to $2400 OBO.

I really want an Electric Vehicle, but like most people, just can not afford it right now. The Phoenix is $45,000. A bit rich but the EV motorbike is only $900 to $1400 and that may do for a short time. = TG
PS: The gas money saved will be a good down payment.

Tesla EV auto Stores coming



Since initial sales volumes will be relatively low, and very little maintenance is required with an electric car, they won't need as many stores at first.

Initially there will be five customer centers opening up in 2007 in the strongest markets for the Roadster. After that, more will be added over the next two years in preparation for the launch of WhiteStar.

Tesla Marketing VP Darryl Siry confirmed that they have selected a location in Los Angeles and are scouting locations in the Bay Area, Chicago and New York. The Miami area is another likely launch location for the Roadster, since it's a natural market for sports cars. After launching the Roadster, they will move into other secondary markets like Seattle, Boston and Atlanta.
