Better than a hybrid, get a recycled all-electric car
I was at the Issaquah Train Show today with my son and out in front of the event was an all-electric vehicle. I was standing around looking at electric train sets and had the pleasure of talking with volunteer Jeff Finn who was helping keep the trains moving around the track. It turns out that […]
