I drove a Civic for 16 years or so. Great car, no major issues. I traded it in for a EV and I couldn't believe how much more convenient it was, starting from the buying experience. No car salesmen / dealership fee. Never go to a gas station again (and rarely need to go to a charger). No more maintenance every 6 months, some of them fairly expensive if you follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule.

I don't know if the finances actually work out to be cheaper but at this point I don't care. The regained time is worth it.
