SCENARIO... .(and i think most of you guys are thinking this)

you have a fairly new car, low mileage can fetch a good trade in (especially in this market)...and its 100% paid for but sucks back premium gas.

would you just hang onto it and 'weather' this storm or say f it - get rid of it for an EV.

FACT is - we've hit this new $2 threshold and reality is - it ain't gonna go down significantly for potentially the foreseeable future.
you can reduce driving and maybe try to aim for a $150-$200 fillup every 2 weeks estimating $400 in fuel costs per month. maybe reduce that by around 25% by doing USA runs bundled with jerry cans.

the real question is...at what point does the return on going EV start benefiting you financially in the above scenario.?
