TBF, I was watching a YouTube video yesterday where he mentionned that there's actually a decent used EV market now. We bought a used car Λ10 months ago, and EVs were out of the question with autotrader listings in Ontario starting at Λ$40K for any EV in good driving condition. Now you can find some all the way down to Λ$20K.
That's gotta be regionally specific, because there are no full electrics, used or otherwise, around here for under $30k.
I just search autotrader for all of Ontario. You can find even cheaper ones below $10K, but they're old models and probably have very limited range. However, as a second vehicle for around town trips (with daily at home charging), they'd be a pretty good option.
I'm going to stop you right fucking there.
Fucking Ontarians thinking they're the whole fucking country again.
Let me guess, when someone tells you their stove has stopped working, you counter with "mine works fine", don't you?
Whoa. Why are you being so aggressive?
I stated in my first comment that I'd searched in Ontario, so I was just clarifying that my search was province-wide. I found those prices all over the province, so I don't think it's "regionally specific." (unless you were trying to convey regions of Canada?)
I don't know where you're from, and couldn't guess it from a quick search of your comment history.
EDIT: I'm not trying to say, "Toronto is the centre of the universe," or anything like that. I'm just trying to give context to my statements.
