Perhaps your life won’t change, what I fear is the more blue states that implement these crazy policies, the car companies will be forced to make more and more EVs, at some point it will become unprofitable for them to make traditional cars or it will make them so expensive basically forcing everyone everywhere to jump on the EV bandwagon.
I am with you, I plan on holding for as long as possible hopefully forever until I assume room temperature.
That is exactly the playbook that happened with auto emissions. Car makers at one time had to build special versions of their products for California. Then a few other states adopted the CA emission regs. It wasn’t long before it became too costly to make two versions of cars, so the regs were adopted nationally.
That is what CA is doing and several other insane states are quickly falling in line.

The rolling brownouts only give me enough electricity to run my house. Not NEARly enough to charge my car.
