My next car will be an all electric. I am hoping it will be next year. I am wanting one with all the safety features, and unfortunately, due to the chip shortage, I am unable to find any in stock anywhere (I’ve looked using a radius of 500 miles for the various manufacturers that I like) And, yes, I could order a Tesla, but with the quality issues they’ve been having and the distance we are from their service centers, I have decided not to go Tesla.

There are many EVs coming out next year and I am hoping one of them will have my name on it. I am preparing myself however, to that it might not be till 2023. The idea that I may never have to fill up with petro fills me with delight. Plus no tuning, oil changes, etc etc needed. These cars, so far, come with a 10-year battery warranty, so I am not concerned about diminishing battery capacity. I usually like to trade my cars out by its 10 year mark and, besides, who knows who wonderful the technology will be in 10 years. Some of these concept cars I’ve been looking at are absolutely dreamy. To be able to drive sideways right into a parallel parking spot! Yes, I’ll be wanting one of those someday.
