I take my wife’s car to Costco and it takes 60 dollars to fill it. I take my care to the Electrify charger and it costs 17 dollars. I admit that I start at he at almost empty and fill it all the way, and my car start at 18% and only charges to 80%. That 60% is only 18 dollars so 100% would be 30 so I pay half as much for the number of miles.

This is a general statement, with no specific intent....I have properly learned to be skeptical of the rose-colored-glasses sort of figures quoted by EV proponents.

Example: The claim was made here that an EV battery could be charged in 15 minutes. RME

An observation: EV proponrnts do not value their own usage of time. Life is short.

Now factor out the gas taxes on the gas car (as mentioned in the article), and the range difference between the gas and electric cars.
