I want an EV! Hellsya I want one. But I can't afford one. Like lots of people. I have a paid for car that has to last, and that's it. If I was young and had a career on the go and was new car shopping, I'd either get a Prime model of some sort or an EV. But, it's not in the cards for me, and that's the reality for a LOT of people, regardless of age.
Then we have resistance regardless of economic circumstance. That's something we need to overcome.
But just reposting about how stupid I am for not blowing $40K on a used Tesla is just a bunch of condescending fuckery.
Move to Whistler BC. I was there last year and holyshit there were more Teslas than other cars. A whole town of friends for you.
