“No EV is a “good buy”. They’re a fad, and will be gone in 7-10yrs. Stay with ICE.”

Yep, believe it or not, that argument was decisively settled in the early 1920’s. There were several EV companies in the United States in the early 1900’s. The electric vehicles went away for the same reasons that they are not practical to own today.

You’re 100% right.
IIRC, they first appeared in 1895, but steam-power put them down, and ICE killed them off.
