Why?
Show threadjaykrownMar 13
Because of climate change and my hatred of breathing in diesel fumes when a truck passes by. I want to see more efficient electric vehicles. With gas prices high the alternative becomes more viable, and it exposes how volatile fossil fuels are.

Thankfully I can drive on E85 so I’m not that affected by the price hike. I would love to switch to electric. But can’t afford it. Maybe when the cars come down do 20-30k, then I could start thinking about it

Look at the used market! Plenty of EV’s in that price range. For instance: cars.com/…/153a974c-1ea1-4a76-892e-31032334d488/

All the research and real world usage has shown that EV’s generally last well over 100K miles so you’ll get a lot of usage out of a used EV.
