Not taking up for EVs, cause I will never own one, but ironically, had a friend last week who has a H2 Hummer and he was raging cause it cost him $97 bucks to fill it up.

But $97 in gas doesn’t take more than 15 minutes, and time is money...

How long did it take to spend that $97?

Your friend is slightly ahead of the game. The H@ Hummer, with a 32 gallon tank will get 352 miles per tank at 11mpg (EPA Average)

The electric perversion gets 329 miles per full charge. That probably assumes all downhill, with the wind, during the day with the AC off and no radio.

I’d love to use an electric ATV on my 35 acres. It’s the perfect situation for an electric vehicle. However, the electrics are absurdly expensive so I’ll go gas.

My 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Supercharged 6.2L HEMI V8 “Trackhawk”, with a 25 gal tank, costs $131.25 to fill w/ 93oct Premium, so $97 would be a welcome change. Give your friend a *chill pill*...

“...and he was raging cause it cost him $97 bucks to fill it up.”

But he still SENT A MESSAGE with the Hummer, and that message is that ‘he cares (about the planet)’, unlike you (or me, for that matter).

His tank must not have been empty. I have a 30 gallon tank that can take $120 to fill up.

Yep, my last nearly full tank in my H3 cost me $97, I’ve had one fill-up recently that was around $110.
