We are also considering a full electic, but I have sometimes some longer trips late at night when I think I would just be a little worried about having enough range! Maybe a hybrid would be a better way of easing into it!
If I get another, it will be full electric for around town, but, I believe until the range gets further, it will be a hybrid parked in my garage. I love the electric and if things were different, then that is the way I would go. Everyone I know that has one loves it.
Good luck! But, yeah, hybrid is the best way to ease into it! And the milage is great!!
