For me, our 5 year old gas vehicle is perfectly fine for many many years. And at our tax rate cannot use any Tax Credit to lower price. But if our situation changed I would consider.
Currently I have a 2022 Toyota Carolla and can boast on out trip Villages to Westerly Ri 20 gallons of gas 1350 miles all highway 67.5 mpg. Consistently this summer traveling in New Enhland 65mpg. Probably our next vehicle will be a plugin hybrid. There are plenty of recharge stations all over.
If our world was just The Villages to Tampa and Orlando we would have just an EV.
