Give me a dumb electric car and ill buy. And/or make insurance/power less expensive. Its around 50-60c per kilowatt and goes up as I use more electricity. Cost of gas is actually cheaper where I am at...and I hate it.

Until then, ill probably stick with my old car.

I hate how corrupt California is. It’s almost break-even for me to run a generator at home instead of buying electricity from PG&E.

This is 100% the problem. And the weight. And the charging infrastructure.

I'm not opposed to EVs, but they haven't solved the problems I need them too yet.
