I might do a hybrid at some point, but I’d never do a plug in electric.

At least Texas is talking about taxing electric vehicles.

I think it would be more productive if you drove it.

“I might do a hybrid at some point, but I’d never do a plug in electric.”

Actually I’m at the point of buying an old pre-computer car due to the cost factor of repairing newer cars.

One of the keys for my Ford Escape stopped working. $175 +/- if they only have to reprogram the key. I didn’t ask about the cost of a new key.
Just replaced the starter...$369 for a new starter including labor.

If the computer takes a crap I’m definitely going old school.

Ohio has an extra $100 per year for a hybrid and $200 for electric or plug in hybrid.

Same here. An electric is SO limited in its uses (living in an urban area), that for the life of me, I don't see any practical purpose.
