- My wife and I drive EVs that we get in, press a button, and it starts, similar to our previous ICE vehicles. Sure but 1. how much was you upfront cost for either 2. how big is ur family 3. daily commute distance 4. use case - Just look at the infrastructure 5 years ago and extrapolate where it will be going. Walmart, a staple of the poor, has announced plans to expand its EV charging footprint. so it is a little like wishful thinking. you may end up being right. you might not, but u r willing to gamble a little all those things matter when u argue 'everyone should be like me' |

I was responding to your dystopian future of iris and palm scans, but as long as you're moving the goal posts: I have a 20 mile commute one way, we regularly drive longer distances (100+ miles a day is common). We are only 2 people, but each of our cars hold 5 people comfortably (both are SUV class). We even drove from Houston to San Diego and back in one of our cars. As for cost, they were on the higher end, but still within the range of a standard SUV.

The same could be have been said about high speed Internet circa the year 1999. Cell phone towers. Cell phone battery life. 5G access. Etc. Is it possible the current trends in EV infrastructure and models being produced will grind to a halt? Sure. In five years gas prices could be $12/gallon too, but neither scenario seems likely.

Never argued that. Was responding to your claims re poor and requirements for NEW vehicles.
