I'm skeptical on costs and ranges of plug in EV's. I believe a huge breakthrough in technology will have to take place to get reasonably priced EV's along with appreciable incresed range.

Government Stimulus Can't Overcome 100 Years of EV Battery Shortcomings

I’m severely skeptical of EV range, NY state gets cold at times, and batteries tend not to function well in the cold.
And range would suffer.

As for teh Tesla, if teh battery runs out fo juice, it bricks.
Replacement battery is 40K bucks, and MAYBE you wil have a working vehicle.
And that 40K is all out of pocket, not covered by warranty.
Yet in an interview with Jay Leno, Elon Musk claimed that Tesla doesn’t care about how little battery juice is laft.

Don’t trust Musk, he’s a slurper of taxpayer funding which he then risks instead of his cash.
In other words, the socialist economic model of ‘business’.
-He stick the risk onto others in exchange for preferencial business treatment.
