    Well ya I’m social distancing but not because covid but because I don’t like people

    No but u missed the point - for me personally a sitting Ev is not saving me money.
    I’d have to use it more then each time I charge it say $30 - I’d physically withdraw $30 and deposit it in another back account in order to actually see it.( cost of filling gas car $60)( only during times I charge) So eventually I’d make the 25g plus taxes for the “buy in “difference of my gas vehicle. Notice I’m still spending money to pretend that I’m actually saving money if I had my gas car
    Maybe I can make that up in 20 yrs if Ev last that long? Then at at point I’m just breaking even??

    Or like I said my so called savings will go to latte, bubble tea, Tim bits,
    AND Zippy’s ice cap!

    I get what you are saying. The same holds true if you had a gas car sitting at home too. No difference. Charging depends if you are out and about as opposed to charging at home. For sure it will cost you $30 to charge at home but that is one month not one week. I still love my gas cars and definitely not saying that this EV is something that will change me but I wanted to give it a fair chance. I just didn’t want to be “that” guy. Lol.

    Oh Christine keeps asking me about your Ev!
    I think if price of admission gets lower then I think Ev sales will get better- it’s that price difference I tell you.

    Just buy a Model S and supercharging s free!! lmao. The sad thing is the $15 bucks for 343 km range is actually $15 for about 260-280 kms range or less if its cold or hot out or raining or you like the radio or the heated seats, if you use the steering wheel or put stuff in the trunk etc etc etc. Everything in an electric car uses the battery power. Just sitting outside in the cold drains the battery, so real world range is no where near epa range.
