I'm currently saving ~$4000 per year that was previously spent on gas. Living in an are with cheap electricity helps a lot, but I would guess that it is worth it for most people, provided they can charge at home.

In my region, the poorest, dumbest fucks drive the biggest trucks and SUVs and it's the gubmint's fault they are poor.

Same thing here, especially those trucks with the ridiculous mud tires which I'm guessing must get horrible mileage at highway speed.
