Probably normal for the west coast (Reno included).

On the freeway I was noticing every 15th car was a Tesla. I think Tesla is running into a slowdown in sales because everyone's got their Tesla already.

Plenty of other EVs in my small town also. Bolt, various Kia and Hyundai, and my wife even saw a CyberTruck the other day.
