My car gets about 700 km/tank. If it's only costing me $7 to charge once, and it's taking 7 times the amount of charges to equal a tank of gas, that's 49$ worth of electricity. That's roughly what it costs to fill my car up with gasoline, anyways?
Are these numbers wrong?

Don't forget to factor in the cost of replacing the batteries in 3-5 years, and paying to dispose of the toxic lithium or heavy metals...
(NiMH -- not so bad -- at least it's recyclable.)

Oil is actually undervalued, we the USA help manipulate & subsidize its price by paying off crooked dictators.
You think oil costs a lot now, wait until the "people" are liberated & asking for market value of a non renewable resource.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get this.....The US turns $1.00 into $0.03 after just 98 years thanks to the Fed.
Fed dilutes our currency via treasury bills bought by China, Japan, India & the US itself (printing out of thin air, gold/silver standard abandoned long ago).
This causes inflation in the global reserve currency which causes food prices to sharply increase which causes revolts in the countries we pay off to keep oil prices low.
Revolts caused by our inflation cause interruptions in our oil which shrinks our economy & reduces the funds we have to pay off other markets all the while inflation is out of control.
So why not just raise the fed rate 5% like we did last time to stave off inflation, food prices, revolts & increased oil costs?
Because we cant, our national debt is too high & we already spend more than we take in. If we raise the rate 5% we as a country default....
So we just print, sell, ---smurfette--- about oil & hope to god there is a plane nearby to steal & fly to safety when ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- hits the fan.
So eff your prius, hummer & electric car. The US & UK are civilized only because we can have anything we want & live a standard of life like no one else.
Stock up on ammo, not oil
EDIT: Stock up on Wico leaf 4 ways too

The supply won't go down because Japan won't be supplying it. The supply will go down because Japan will be buying more than anyone anticipated.

They just lost all their oil, hmmm....haven't read that news story. Got the news story showing the entire oil supply of Japan got misplaced in the earthquake? And how many nuclear power plants you think went down? they have over 50.

I thought we got oil from places that we can bully, you know, ones that dont really have a military, like Canada, and a few south american countries.

The world is run by greedy people. They will sell gas for as high as they can possibly get away with. I think that the government should step in, since the increase in prices is not actually related to any thing real. It's all speculation. Other industries wouldn't be able to get away with gouging their prices this way.
