There are lots of good arguments for electric cars. Fossil fuel supply is not one of them. At a bare minimum, we have 64 years of oil left, but that assumes that we will never be able to find any more or wring more oil out of fields than expected. History shows that both assumptions are not good ones to make.

Emissions, cost & the environmental impact of tar sand mining are better arguments for electric cars.
