Absolutely. I have a 2016 Volt and I love it. I've gone 4200 miles between fill-ups; I charge at home and only fill up when I go on a long trip or the car decides the gas is too old. I get all the benefits of an EV, all the benefits of a hybrid, and all the benefits of a gas-car. Plug-in hybrids are a better way forward than full EV's.

It's a great setting, but the mechanics need a lot of refinement. A video game would be awesome.

First, the beginning of your post sounds like the opening line to Jimmy Buffett's "The Devil I Know": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9WBXNW8Kj4

Second, my favorite experience with the B-1 was at the Edwards AFB air show. They were at max power, full afterburner, but near stall - the nose was pointed way up and they were just crawling across the sky. The ground shook; the cars were parked on the flightline (pre-9/11), and every car alarm went off at the same time. It was awesome.

"She said I'm gonna hire a wino, to decorate our home.
So you'll feel more at ease, here, and you won't need to roam.
We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall.
And a neon sign'll point the way to our bathroom down the hall."
