I guess since it doesn’t sound like you want to spend thousands for a new car, I guess you’re not looking for a EV then! Also being 82 I’m guessing your Ins. has went through the roof. We think Ins. rates are high now, I would like to hear what EV buyers think about owning a EV & how much their Ins. is? Maybe this is the wrong question to ask because I’m sure the ones that own an EV have the money to own one. Just wait until their warranty runs out then they’ll see the real price of maintenance. Most of us can’t afford to buy a EV because of the low mileage it ca get per charge. I had a family member that owned 2 EV’s & he’s a Dr. I never asked why he went back to a gas operated car but he must of had a good reason. If anybody wants a EV buy one. But I’m not driving 2 or 250 miles then start looking for a charging station! EV’s aren’t cheap or cheap to maintain, I’m sure the dealers tell you different!
