I'd buy an EV if I could afford one. Shit, when that transmission went out it would have been a good time to consider. But not with the price tags on everything and my 2004 wages.
The average new car in 2023 was like $47,000, would you have bought a new car at all?
Well, you see, you don't have to pay the entirety of the 47k right away. I have no idea why but they said I couldn't make payments on the transmission when I asked in person.
While I agree that EVs are too expensive, it just sounds like you're making the argument that you can't buy any new car. Which is also fair but different.
Thats true, too. I can't afford shit.
