Comment | Hello Members of CARB: I am writing to urge you to adopt the strongest possible amendments to the ZEV regulations. I am the owner of a solar-powered RAV4-EV. I haven't pumped gasoline in five years! Everywhere I go, people stop me and ask where they can get a car like mine. They are so frustrated when I tell them that Toyota only sold them for a few months. My personal experience is that there is HUGE demand for EVs, especially now that the state of California is encouraging development of home solar systems that can power them. Please do everything you can to encourage the sale of electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids in California. My children are counting on your strong actions to help to reduce gobal warming emmissions and reliance on foreign sources of energy. Solar-powered electric vehicles like mine can make a significant contribution toward that goal -- if you make the auto-makers sell them. Thank you for doing the right thing.
