> Or better yet, owners set their car to only "bid" for a grid storage job when the cost-per-kWh is greater than the cost of degradation. It would have to be substantially greater. I'm not going to deal with reduced battery capacity and the hassle of replacing it early for a couple of cents here and there. Considering the extra cost of equipment to allow the EV to send power to the grid, I don't think the economics will ever work out.

That's the great thing about choice: you can choose your price! But it sounds like V1G might be a better choice for you instead of V2G. The economics don't work out at the monthly average rate. That's why storage only kicks in when spot prices are well above average.
