It's Friday: Electric cars are for Geeks?

Electric cars are kinda geeky. At least that seems to be the case in the minds of a sizable percentage of the American populace. That said, electric car fans shouldn't take too much offense at that notion – think cool geek with thick black-rimmed glasses and All Stars. Or, alternatively, think Nerd Herd Geek Squad.

Evidence that the roving squad of computer-fixing Geeks has a hankering for clean electric transportation can be seen in the image above, which was snapped by an alert AutoblogGreen reader. Late last year at the LA Auto Show, Best Buy's Senior Vice President of emerging business, Rick Rommel, told AutoblogGreen that the idea is to learn, "How these will fit into a Geek's daily life."

Judging by the photo above, we'd have to say that the diminutive Mitsubishi i-MiEV fits rather well. Hat tip to Collin!
