To: Tell It Right

EV’s were/are nothing but a fad so the virtue signalers can make themselves morally superior to the rest of us proles.

The whole point is to make personal transportation unaffordable for the masses.

My wife and I drove our EV 26K miles last year, with 16K of those miles charged at home. The gas savings of an EV is real, but only if you drive enough miles to be more than worth the costs that come with an EV.

Other things IMHO are you ought to be married so that you have two cars anyway, with the other car being a gas car for the times an EV won't do, and live in a warm climate, and have a place at home to set up a home charger. Look up most of the road trips you make and be sure that there are plenty of charging options (otherwise in our case we'd have to take the old gas pickup). Last but not least, be in the market for a car anyway (it was time to replace my wife's car). Only if all of those conditions apply should one consider getting an EV. But if someone's in that situation, an EV might be worth considering.
