I can see that you're emotional about this, but as someone who doesn't exactly love pumping gas it's nowhere near as apocalyptic as you seem to think it is.

- redleggedfrog 3y agoYes, you're quite right. I can go electric in a few years when the ranges are better.
- rootusrootus 3y agoWe got our first electric car four years ago and it's been great. It's actually my preferred road trip car (Model 3 LR) these days. Even the Bolt my wife drove for a few years was mostly just fine, as long as we were staying within Oregon & Washington. I haven't been to a gas station in months, and maybe longer than a year. And IIRC that wasn't even to get gasoline, just to refill a propane tank. We have one remaining ICE vehicle (a pickup, which tows our travel trailer) and my wife takes care of that when she goes to Costco. Even then, it only gets driven a thousand miles a year or so, so she doesn't have to do it too often. Plugging in at home and starting every day with a full battery is really nice.
