Good point. Really depends what the difference in up front cost is. Anything more than $5k, and I think ICE is still prudent if you are not driving at least 15k miles per year.

Plus, ICE are time tested. The new EVs coming out have a lot of unknown risks and reputation to still build up. I do not mind letting others beta test.

yup, excellent points about the price delta and beta/gamma testing. I'm really enthusiastic about the technology, but will likely wait until my relatively good condition auto degrades and the EVs keep improving.
