I hope that works out for everyone that uses it but the key reason I ended up getting an electric vehicle after my ICE vehicle broke down was to avoid oil and gas prices, especially in regards to the continuing degradation of the geopolitical situation in the middle east where OPEC+ produces and transports more than 80% of the world supply of usable oil.

I hated waking up and wondering if the dice roll would break my bank that day. Although my car ended up a fair bit more expensive than I had wanted, the vehicle has nearly paid for itself with all the charges I didn't have to pay at the pump.

This isn't an endorsement for electric vehicles just a note of a positive side that I personally was able to avoid.

If my country wasn't completely backwards and we had more nuclear facilities and less dependence on oil barons, I'd be happier, but the reality is not everyone has the ability to change over, and even I would still be using an ICE vehicle today if insurance didn't cover the rest of the price of my old car when my accident happened.
