Actually, you CAN look at map, click on a charger, and see if it works.  It’s pretty easy.

If we have $7/gal gas maybe.

Same goes for EVs. Not everyone needs to get 60 in 3 seconds flat, but that’s how even Volvo is marketing the EX30.  Maybe detuning it substantially could yield another 100 miles range?  I dunno.

“battery replacement Sword of Damocles”

BB I4 - you have a lot of excuses.

Well if 5000 - 10000 lb mobile living rooms weren’t becoming the norm, a Fit would stand a chance. The race to the bottom (increased mass) helps no one but the carmakers.

“It costs us about $20k per space for charging”

More like $90k

Building codes need to evolve to require chargers. A few years Boston started requiring 25% of parking spaces have EV chargers and 100% be EV-ready (meaning conduits, electrical capacity). This requirement is even higher than California.

Agree re: stock, in awesome shape.  These are so rare I’d venture this is probably the only one we’ll see for another 10 years.  

Another fat, heavy, inefficient waste of EV resources that won’t sell. Then dealers will bitch and moan that they can’t move EVs.

For one, I want to limit Googles snooping into my business as much as possible.

The Caddy also has CarPlay.

“My 2019 F150 has never been hard down but just about every oil change its needed something.”

My Polestar 2 has a very good implementation of Android Auto, with the full “Hey Google” bs built in.

I was being generous. :)

Part of the intent of government programs is ‘to spend money’

It’s still Infrastructure Week (TM-GOP) in Biden’s America!

Almost as hard as moving $80k EVs.

“That means there are around 2.5 million vehicles just sitting on dealer lots”
