    Yup. I already have two cars, a larger car for family trips (minivan), and a commuter (hybrid). The family car isn’t likely to be an EV anytime soon, but the commuter could, but I’m not paying $50k for something that’s way overkill, I just need you get to work and back.

    The Chevy Bolt and Leaf are close, and I’ll probably get one eventually, but they’re just a little too expensive for me to replace my currently working car. I want something with an inexpensive battery so I can replace it in 5-10 years without going broke.

      I was planning on converting the 83 Honda or the scirocco myself but right around when I had saved up enough money the dollar tanked compared to USD and a lot of stuff would come from there if I didn’t order by the seacan amount. Now I can barely afford anything let alone the batteries or any of the work on the car really.
