It's almost like the people who buy EVs are doing it to save money.

The money saving is the bait on the hook, but once you change there is no return. It's just so much better in every way

I do miss smaller cars and if they were electric too? Count me in! The 80's economy cars were the best.

Honestly, I'd love a smart car sized EV. If I'm just running errands I don't need my truck (it's a Santa Cruz, not a gas guzzler).

And my wife has to commute 40 miles a day, which makes her jeep kinda impractical.
