“The Car Wizard has a YT video out now in which he discusses auto technology to avoid. One of them is buying a used EV, because most EVs do not indicate the health of the battery, and you could be stuck with an EV that has only a few years’ worth of life in it, and with a range that’s cut in half or worse.”
The used battery is worthless!
“He also mentioned that a used battery for a Tesla is going for $19.3K.”
The used battery is NOT worthless!
Your straw man is weak.
He did not say all used batteries are worthless. You did.
At least my ICE will still run without a catalytic converter.
