Well, That’s One Way to Sell Americans on Electric Cars. The U.S. has been wary of EVs. As the cost of gas soars, we’re now paying the price.

I’m not “wary of EVs”, I can’t afford a new car, be it gas or electric.

If you can easily park your vehicle near an electrical outlet, consider buying a used EV the next time you need a car. Used EVs are comparatively cheap and their batteries usually last longer than their eight to ten year warranty. You don’t need a high voltage charger for in-town driving — just plug it into an electrical outlet overnight.

I recommend finding one manufactured after 2021 for good range and battery life (but avoid the first and second generation Nissan Leaf).
