“It's not because of the fuel price that people are rejecting EVs. It is the inconvenience of having to continually charge the darned thing, and the short range between charges.”

We didn’t buy an EV to get lower running costs - that was just a happy accident. We bought it because we liked driving it. 65k miles in 3.5 years later we still enjoy driving it, and it’s cost 4 tires, a new windshield and cheap electricity.

Charging is very convenient - just plug it in when you get home. In the morning it’s full again. Range is not an issue. We have four gas powered cars to choose from for longer trips.

More on topic - oil has uses beyond burning it in vehicles. We will be extracting it well beyond my children’s lifetimes.
