This is my first post so sorry if I missed anything. I just got my 2025 Leaf leased yesterday from Boulder Nissan and the price actually is $9/mo. 24 month, 10k miles per year lease. This is the cheapest monthly I've seen in CO.

If you ever traveled you might have noticed there is no place to refuel.
Who knew Colorado didn't have 115v or 230v electricity yet. Darn shame.

I haven't seen one in my city yet.
Have you actually looked? Every Walmart, government office, school, mall, shopping center etc near me has a half dozen RV chargers, at least. I'm in rural-ish NC and see them daily and I am not even looking. BTW NC is hardly a progressive state (though not in denial either).

But they wouldn't be able to leave their extremely small undeveloped cities to go anywhere. This is Colorado too. Nothing but dust an ranches in between the east an west coast
I bet finding a gas station in those areas might also require planning. I sure as heck have been near empty looking for gasoline in an extremely small undeveloped city...haven't you? Is that proof fossil fuels are inherently flawed?

? You know people who have solar and living a place where they can produce good amount of solar energy, has been pretty much electricity independent for a very long time.
My yearly gas cost was close to $10,000 dollars, in Southern California and with Costco gas. And now I'm driving the same distance, was twice the horsepower, zero gas or electric bill.My panel produced, on average year round, 50 kilowatt hours per day.
I mean if you happen to have a oil field and refinery in your backyard, you'll be crazy to not drive a gas car, this is the same logic.
So many questions.. related to auto and solar..
1. At $5/gallon in CA, $10k fuel cost is 2000 gallons per year.. at 20mpg, that's 40k miles per year .. at 30mpg, that's 60k miles per year
2. Installed solar at 50 kwh/day is not cheap.. that's 3x the average.. without batteries that could cost $100 to $200k.. with batteries (Tesla or other) could add $50 to $100k extra.. before incentives and rebates
Very curious what the total cost for solar and the EV was, the total annual savings on gas and electric.. the estimated time to break even .. what would require 60k miles travel per year.. and the warranty on the solar panels and EV battery. Thanks!

lol I bought another EV 5 years after my first. Why would I want to buy a car I can't produce power for myself? Especially one that requires more maintenance and makes the air I breathe dirtier?
Yes, gas powered is the only way to go!
Plenty of articles out "there" lately, discussing that almost half the current EV owners regret their purchase and are going back to gas powered engines asap.
Thumbs down don't change the truth!!..lol
If you care about your kids, grandkids, etc. You will stop burning fossil fuels. You have been indoctrinated by the industry to include the Middle East. Poison gas can never be a good idea.

I'd like to see the source for that. I'm on my fourth EV. I would never buy a gas car as they are so much more maintenance and I hate going to the gas station. If you value your time which is honestly your most valuable commodity, electric is the only way to go.

If you look at what I am responding to, he is asking about 20 years from now, of course it will be closer to 5 or 10.
again, 20 years from now you will still be able to get gas. I don't think 20 years is enough to updated our whole power grid to support everyone having an ev. Our power grid is dated, like shockingly dated. You might not be able to buy a new gas car, but you will still find gas.
Stop trying to make it seem like gas is finished, it is not.
Just to put into perspective, we still have homes in the US who don't have high speed broadband and its been many years. It took space constellations to get that number to go up.
