[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an EV and I would never buy one again. First, it has sent our electric bill through the roof - with electricity going up all the time, I'm not sure it's that much less than gasoline! Second, the car needs a lot more maintenance than a regular gas vehicle, and its all much more expensive. The tires must be replaced 2x a year. The battery hasn't needed replacing yet but when it does, it will cost a fortune. Third, the risk of fire is really scary - once they start burning, it's really hard to put them out. For me, I'm counting the months until I can trade it in on a gas vehicle. [/quote] Hmmmm. I haven’t noticed much of an increase in our electricity bill since we bought a Tesla. We’re the opposite, now that we have an EV (and three ICE vehicles), we want to switch to all EV. They’re simply easier to maintain. Nonetheless, I’m in the auto industry and everyone is betting that hydrogen, not EV, is the future. [/quote]
