We live in N. California which probably has more EV cars than most areas.

A couple of years ago we gave my Honda Ridgeline to a younger family member which left us with a 20 year old Lexus, still in good shape and running order.

We can exist very well with one car, and we thought about EV’s and decided to give the extra costs of owning an EV to our charities and family members.

My wife doesn’t want to mess with the math needed to make sure your EV can get you where you want to go and back. She has me to keep her Lexus supplied with gasoline.

When we have a typical California power failure, that seals the “not yet” re any EV.

Can you guys install those whole house backup generators that run on propane/natural gas? Because then you would still be in business for power and charging.
