    So with a large percentage of people in America living close to paycheck - to - paycheck the price of gas and food increasing while income stays relatively stagnate. More and more are using credit to get by just for day to day stuff. With the current administration killing (killed) off any incentives for EVs along with a lack of charging infrastructure for them - the biggest being in apartments which is where many live due to the cost of buying a house is outrageous. How and what are they supposed to use for buying these more efficient vehicles ?

    I’m not trying to be a dick with this its just not as easy as getting a more efficient car - and with gas prices continuing to go up more efficient cars will become more expensive and sought after as well.

      Gee… it’s almost as if regardless of fuel costs, more efficient vehicles always make sense. This cyclical bullshit has been going on since the 70s, you would think idiots would have learned a lesson by now.
