Right. But the vast majority of people don't have a clue as to how ICE's work, let alone the upfront costs, infrastructure and operating costs regarding EV. Whether income plays a factor or not is moot given this disparity. There's nothing wrong with EV's and there are a few I'd personally...
They aren't pieces of shit but long term sustainability is suspect (for now) and not as many people as you think are ready to jump in on something with such an outrageous upfront cost. Not right now anyway, maybe in a decade when the tech has gotten better and cheaper, just like anything else...
I had a hard on for a Gladiator EcoDiesel Willys, mainly for the truck bed. But hell, it would be a $55k Jeep at the end of the day, and I have a Gen2 Lightning for a weekend cruiser. So Iāll have my truck bed if needed. It made coming back to revisit the Bronco as an option an easy choice...
That āfreeā was meant in jest.
Well yeah, if they have a ton of solar panels, sure, and yes, HUGE up front cost. Iām talking about the average rube who will get fleeced thinking that theyāll be saving money by going EV.
Please, EVās are going to fall flat on their faces when impressionable idiots realize how much more they are paying to energize their vehicle on a kW/dollar figure š
Oh, and letās not mention the unsustainable āfreeā charging stations throughout the country.
