I own 1 Gas car (Subaru) at a 2nd home (Wyoming) that we have spent a total 1 month so far this year and it has cost me more in gas than owning and charging 2 EV’s (California) full-time.

Please tell me again the advantages of owning a gas car again?

    If you can charge at home, a used EV could easily have a lower cost of ownership.

    Used Bolts/Leafs are in the $15k range. With the new tax credit, you will be able to save up to $4k which puts them in the $10k or less range. Factor in fuel and maintenance savings over an ICE and it’s like getting a car for a few thousand dollars.

    I would be in favor of requiring landlords to install chargers if requested by their tenants. And I say this as a landlord.
