Does not seem to be true of a lot of the poor and average Joes and Jills out there, since they seem to be buying used gas-guzzling pickups and SUVs at about the same rate that more prosperous folks buy new ones.

The average Joe Public can hardly afford full coverage insurance that would be required on an electirc car let alone the payments.
But Joe still takes out a loan to buy his used car, so has to pay for that full coverage.
