Besides the fact that is is a totally random pointless topic :P, yes I would give up my gas-hogging 1970 truck for something that never took gas. Imagine, going anywhere you want all the time and never looking at the meter...

Depends on the performance and reliability.

Unrealistic question. Give up my commuter, $10k for a car I don't have to gas-up? Yes. Give up the utility vehicle I use to haul stuff around in on occasion? Not likely, unless this uber vehicle is extremely robust.

Well since this is in the Science section, do you happen to have any scientific research on the matter i.e. a article about this or a fuel-less car? Otherwise i should think Local Pub is better suited.
