In the fall of 1990 as I was preparing for my first winter development trip, I needed a pair of boots

I don't remember where I bought them, but I seem to recall paying about $70-80 for a pair of Sorel Caribous. As we approach the waning days of this winter season more than 22 years later, those same Sorels are still going strong. They're not exactly stylish, but they keep my feet warm and dry and are showing no signs of disintegrating or wearing out. Definitely the best footware investment I've ever made.

While the company had some ambitious plans, they never had as much funding as +Tesla Motors or +Fisker Automotive and the market of plug-ins has not developed as quickly as proponents hoped.

L.A. electric car company Coda looks like it’s barely breathing
