EV parade continues

Another couple I know that lives out in the boonies ditched their 10 year old Subaru Impreza for a 2018 Leaf, just like this:



I'm hoping to get a chance to try it out soon.

They're a 3 car family, so have gas back-up for those rare long trips.

But like so many EV owners, they're finding they're using the EV a lot more than they thought they would, and prefer driving it over the ICE cars.

That makes 5 people I know who have bought cars with plugs in the past year or so.
