Meet George Jetson!

December 21st, 2007 Wade

Would I be caught dead in this… probably not. Would I secretly want one in the same way that I secretly wanted a Pound Puppy when I was a kid… yeah sure.

I saw this article the other day with this crazy looking ride that could have been George Jetsons whip.

But don’t fret friends, this ride is made by Tesla Motors, and they don’t just make Jetson cars. Now their roadster would fulfill my Pound Puppyesque lust for an electric car while keeping my manhood in tact. Check it.

Unlike most electrics this one actually has some range. You can go up to 245 miles on a charge. And it costs 2 cents a mile. Of course you’re going to pay for looking cool and saving the world… $100 grand. Woowie Wow Wow!

Flea even has one. And like I always say, “If Flea likes it, I like it.”

    First one. Would I bet caught dead in that? Hell yes :)

    Estimated price is $30,000, has three wheels, and can achieve 300 MPG. It has a drag coefficent of just .11 (.26 for a Toyota Prius — lower is better), sprints from 0 to 60 in 10 seconds, and tops out at 95 MPH.

    Just don’t laugh when I take this off-road!
