That's why I couldn't transition to an electric car yet. I had a chance to get a larger vehicle a few years ago to haul the kid's and their stuff around but felt like I would miss the fun of driving a car. A lot of my neighbours have Teslas and I just couldn't get used to them.

Ended up getting a Subaru Legacy GT to fill that need of a turbo, awd sedan with decent creature comforts like a heated steering wheel and ventilated seats. Modded with better summer and winter rims, exhaust and tint. No more crazy modifications like 25 years ago but just enough to keep me feeling young whenever I fire her up in the garage. The sound of the boxer rumble on a cold start with that hint of carbon dioxide...reminds me of when I was 18 especially when I put in my 90's playlist.

If I can drive another 10-15 years in this car, the next one will have to be a hybrid or electric anyway so this is probably my last hurrah. By then I will be too old to even care I think.
