Thinking about getting a EV. Just curious why you got yours. The reasons I can think of are:

  • Environmentally friendly 🌵
  • Cheaper Fuel ⚡️
  • They are cool/trendy 😎
  • Lower maintenance 🔧

Is there anything surprising that you found out after you bought it?

    1. Don’t have to go to a gas station to get gas.

    2. Can refill car at home.

    On points 1 and 2. It is not me anti oil company but the fact I can fill up my car at home with a set it and forget it. If I could refill my ICE car in the garage I would be all for it. If I had to drive so where to fast charge my car I would not get it.

    1. It cost me less to run.

    2. Fun to drive.

    3. No flameable liquid stored in my garage.

    Environment reason is not on my list and when I was making this list to convences my wife she called me out on it knowing it was a bs reason for me.

    Since we got an EV. The lack of noise and cabin preconditing has become a bigger deal. We can shut our garage with out turning the car off first and can start the car with out opening it as well.
