Ye ... my experience with old cars is that the ICE is not the main time or money sink. Thinks like drive axis, suspension parts, wheel bearings, brakes etc is common with EVs - and those fall apart. The timing and generator belt headache is replaced by two selfdriven motors/pumps on EVs for the oil or water cooling system and servo. Hardly less mentainance and more expensive parts. The main thing is that most EVs are new so most have not had their exposed systems beaten out of spec and turned into rust yet, I assume.
