I have a 67 Camaro. I will never sell. It is now worth $45k and rising. I pulled it from a junkyard in ‘78 for $250.

At some point the electric car craze will crash. It isn’t so much that the cars are inferior, but the electric grid and power generation would take a generation or more to develop.

I live in a rural area of SC. The closest charging station is Columbia, about 55 miles away. I know of one person who bought a Tesla, they even put a charging port in at their house. They kept the Tesla for less than a year. One of the reasons they got rid of it was it jacked their light bill up by over $300 a month. Another one was they had to plan their trips based upon where they could find a charging station. His wife was miffed it would start to rid rough at 52 mph. I told them if we ever had to evacuate again because of a storm, I wanted them to be the last ones to leave because I didn’t want my family to be stuck behind them on the Interstate when their battery went dead.
