People arguing about the price of gas, but as soon as someone mentions driving an EV they're "stupid" and woke

Not only are the points you made on EV good, but you can also fill up an EV at home. You never have to leave the house in the morning without a full tank ever again.

I don't think they realize this. If you have a garage with a charge port (which can be added fairly cheaply now) then you never have to worry about getting gas before work again. You just always leave with a "full tank"

And if you have solar panels and a smart charger, you can do it with just the excess power you'd be sending to the grid otherwise. Under the right circumstances you could just drive for free.

You can't fill up an EV at home if you rent, most of the time. Higher wattage charging requires a charger installation.
