    Let’s all live in shame because we can afford electric. I hate to tell you the huge amount of emissions that go into producing the electric cars in the factories too. Also the non-renewable resources that go into them.

      $300/year to drive 10,000 miles per year feels pretty good though. Also, zero emission at the tailpipe.

      Everyone will be driving ev within 10 years.

        Lolololol 👌

        I’ll definitely spend more to get less car and break even after 10 years of owning an EV.

        You crazy if you think we’ll all be EV in 10 years, as much as I wish that’d be true

        I still drive a 2002 lol

          Your car will not last forever. I got rid of my 2002 3 years ago when it broke down. The ev was cheaper.

            I got an 02 Subaru outback in really good condition, and only 196k miles. I still got a few years. When it dies, I’ll probably get a car around 2012 or so. No way it’s cheaper to get an EV then to buy used.

              You will be able to buy used evs by then. I bought two used evs, for less than $31,000.

      Again, it’s about being happy about it. You don’t have to live in shame. There are other options.
