A lot Retirees in TV could benefit greatly with electric cars since most rarely drive a car long distance and EVs are basically maintenance free (Won't get ripped off at the car Stealerships). Costco is 120 mile RT...Orlando and Tampa airports are about 170 miles RT...Most EVs get realistically about 250 miles per charge. Just plug them into 120V plug and it will charge at about 4 miles per hour and cost about 4 cents a mile in electricity. The only real maintenance is tires and wiper blades.

Economic sense.....Not really.
