It would be great for a daily driver even if the RL/GXP does outperform it a little, and then I could upgrade to a ZOK package and turn my current GXP into a trailer queen/track star ......it would be much cheaper than the $100K for the Tesla...

Yes, I'm not ready to do it yet either, but you gotta admit even the fact that the calculation is getting close is news in itself. I bet 5 years down the road the conversion is much cheaper, oil and gas prices are even higher, and the no-brainer will be in effect. Hopefully we'll get smart and build a bunch of nuke plants to keep 'em charged. I wouldn't be surprised if my next new car is all-electric.
