120,000 miles/25 mpg = 4,800 gallons x $3.50/gallon = $16,800 (which is only 14 cents per mile)
Also, the study seems to calculate the cost of Government subsidies for EVs, but what about the cost for subsidies for ICE vehicles?

it really isn't all that confusing, however the part I am looking for the is cost of the recharge, it's not free.
The part though that everyone has completely missed on this topic is this.
If somehow you can 'drown' aka bankrupt all the car manufacturers in this country, (just like groceries in Chicago) you are then forced to have a government created and run auto manufacturer. It's just that simple.
