Yea i am a test pilot but i pay pennies while gas is well over 4 bucks a gallon.  I will take it.  If i need to take a road trip we will just use the wifes car.

Yea a few have caught fire charging.  I charge in driveway so not really a huge concern and battery recallis being done.

I didnt pay over 15k for either one both used.

Oh and i also keep an old dodge ram around for those times when you just need a truck.

That’s the way to do it. I would love to have an EV because 99% of my driving is well within electric distance. Right now I just don’t want to absorb the cost of keeping both types of vehicles.

I'm really interested in the Equinox EV. Since my next vehicle purchase is likely 3 or 4 years away, should be time to shake the bugs out. They need to improve the charging network and work on the entry price to get past the reluctance lots of people are still experiencing. In 10 years gasoline/diesel only vehicles will be on the way out.
