Have you considered the logistics and money involved in getting a proper charging station installed in your home? Or the cost of recharging at a station in town and the amount of time you'll be waiting for the charge? Or the time it could take to find a charging station? Are you willing to spend 10 grand in the future when the battery eventually fails to hold an adequate charge?

Going electric isn't as cheap as you think it is.

Not even bringing up how toxic mining for the materials needed for the batteries.

You've got to be one dumb modafkr to be spending $800 on gas per month when the car doesn't even look that good. That thing is PURE waste. I spend about 150$/month and I drive a Lexus SUV and that's because my CC this semester is far away.

Most people don't spend more than $1500 in gas PER YEAR unless its cucks with trucks.

If you want to save on gas while not having to drive a Prius, your best bet is to get in a used Luxury car like a Lexus. The best MPG you'll get is 30mpg if you don't want to sacrifice style.

EV's are too expensive. The amount you pay will just be the same as the amount you spend per year on gas. Volvo makes some nice cars. The new precept finna be fire.

I'm working on batteries for EVs right now, and were cycling them constantly and seeing no more than 2+3% Deg a year.
Are you cycling them in a mixture of hot and cold climates with varying humidity and varying loads? And on a rumble machine to simulate it being in a moving car? If not that test means nothing in real world value.
Imagine buying a gas car in which the tank shrinks slightly every year. No thanks, false economy

I like EVs. They are not perfect as many point out, but from my experience I've found EVs to be comfortable and fun to drive & it is nicer to fill up basically at home.
