Great conversation on both sides folks.
I recently posted a "hypothetical churchlady with an EV" question that deals with my own personal situation.
( I have driving anxiety / agoraphobia and my car never gets driven )
My 30 year old Honda Civic is having an 'electrical gremlin' show up again, and I must admit looking at used Nissan Leafs after seeing a video that showed how that some Tesla cars still have most of their battery left after 10+ years.
( And thinking the same might be true of Leaves )
But I'm also looking at end of life recycling of the batteries( Thinking of how Elon says that word : bat-trees LOL )
I hate that in today's world, one must do so much research to see what is actual truth.
One of you pointed out in the past that it wold be far more eco friendly to drive an old gas junker than to buy an new EV.
I would of coarse be buying a USED EV, so that would lessen that argument.
However, in my situation, I never drive my ICE junker anyways.
If I bought a used Leaf, I would have to replace that battery in just a few years ( scorching hot Texas sun while sitting in my apartment driveway, and very little use / charge of the battery. )
In my case, I think it would be far more eco friendly to just stick with my junker.
