I am probably going to trade in my car for an EV this year. I have been following the technology for a while but I really do no not like all the touchscreen nonsense.

Do you like your EV? What is it? What are the pros and cons of your experience?

The Ford MachE and the Subaru Solterra are at the top of my list but I like the KIA too.

    I could go on forever, so feel free to ask me any direct questions and I’ll be happy to answer.

    I’ve had or driven for a period of time a Chevy Volt, Chevy Bolt, Mustang Mach-e, Tesla Plaid, Rivian R1T, Rivian R1S, a weird BMW egg, and a Cadillac Optiq.

    I love my EV. I forget how to get gas. I forget how to get oil changes.

    Looking forward to the Optiq V.

      I wanted to consider the BMW or a Leaf but my wife just hates how they look and I’m a tall guy so she said I’d look funny. Best to avoid that haha

        My wife used to hate my i3 but it grew on her because it is a very cute car. They’re also way bigger than you’d think. I’ve had people that are 6’6" in mine with head/legroom to spare.
