    The discussion at hand is battery powered vehicles and the used market cost. Not cost of ownership, not most expensive part, but the second hand market. Which with a battery powered EV you have to take much different precautions when purchasing one in the used market compared to an ICE vehicle, precautions the average person does not think about or know.

    A transmission for a Sentra is $1500… still not equal to a Leaf battery pack, taking that argument further.

    I have never bought a new car, and have sold every single one to someone else, who is either still driving it or has sold it to someone else. The fact that you scrap cars so readily lets me know you have no idea of value of an ICE vehicle, let alone an electric powered one.
