There aren't many of us solar users and EV owners who are conservative. But of those of us who exist, a large percentage of us do it to diversify our energy dependence and/or to make us less dependent on the Dims' energy policies.
I probably wouldn't own an EV even as a 2nd car if I lived near the hurricanes or regular blizzards. I probably wouldn't own an EV even where I live if it wasn't for the fact that I went solar too and made my house all-electric as a way to try to wean us from being dependent on energy resources that the Dims control through their stupid policies. An EV is an extension of that mostly energy freedom -- allowing us to do all of our local driving practically free just like we power our home practically free (pulling 15% to 20% of our power from the grid).
I admire your well though out and well implemented solutions. In your spot I would own an EV too. I'm guessing in the future when more of the kinks have been worked out - most of us will follow in your footsteps. For now - living in Florida with a back yard that ends at a salt water stream - not a chance...
