Long commute > 50$ a week in fuel

Eh… You don’t have a long commute buddy and I doubt you drive over 100 000 miles in 3 years!

Talk about my maths all you want, yours doesn’t make sense.

Also you’re acting like your battery will need to be changed after 100k miles for sure but you certainly don’t take into consideration that your gas engine could blow up after your warranty expires and it’s no cheaper than an EV battery! The difference is that the EV will require much less maintenance over its lifespan and is much cheaper to drive day to day.

All of my numbers are true. I drive 100 miles a day, my golf gets 40 miles to the gallon. You do the math.
