      I think for a commuter car ev is the way to go especially if your jobsite has free or subsidized charging, then an ICE car for camping and road trips

      Most of the world doesn’t have drives needing more than a full EV battery, not even most of the US. EV sales are up, and in a lot of places, it’s shifting to be the norm.

      Buying ICE, especially a truck when you don’t need one is a statement, not buying an EV like everyone else.

      Take off the foil hat

      Sorry, are you really just going to deny the many crimes taking place at gas stations?

      Once your battery is empty you’re in for a long wait.

      Your battery should never be empty. With modern charging tech it’s usually ~15 mins. at a fast charger to go 10-80%. The car is usually ready before me.

      Plus the chances of your card being cloned with a chip and pin machine in a shop are so close to zero

      You’re out of your depth. This still happens all the time.

      EV’s are more of a statement

      LOL no.
