You need to keep saying it so all these morons will finally understand that EVs suck for everyone but the manufacturers. They suck long term, they suck on the used market, they suck for huge swaths of humanity that don't own homes.

Tesla won't even let you buy out the vehicle at the end of the lease.

Tesla isn't the only company who makes EVs.

I personally bought both of my ev's used. And yes, one is older than 10 years and still running great, I wouldn't hesitate to replace it with one the exact same age.

Parts are out there, and it's getting easier and easier to find refurbished and replacement packs. (Pretty much the only thing that "wears out" in an EV)
