I like mine actually, but I leased them, I'm in unrestricted PG&E rate market, went from $600 a month sweating my nuts off avoiding the AC, being the lights-off NAZI, etc, to around $180 and we run the AC 24x7 for comfort, charge my wife's Volt every day, and I don't care what the lights do.

I'm not a green freak, it was just pure economics for me.
