Even when driving an electic car, you'll have to buy small amounts of oil in the form of transmission oil and grease. You'll also have to buy electricity (the price of which will be taking a big jump in many parts of the country as the EPA forces the power companies to shut down most of their coal powered power plants) and possibly a replacement battery pack 8 to 10 years down the road.
