No. Also you can’t walk or cycle. I mean, on a really rare occasion I see someone try but there’s a really strong chance you’ll get hit and die. You never see them try a second time. The last time I was walking 2km up the road because I had dropped my car off at the tire shop, four people offered me a ride to get me off the side of the road.
Our family could benefit from one electric vehicle for our commutes but I often drive 1500-2000km in a day driving to the mountains out west for my job. I also need a specialized vehicle with very high ground clearance and real 4 wheel drive.
Electric vehicles are still pretty expensive and we’re not ready to take on a payment right now. We have a big family (five drivers) and our current cars are a 2007, 2011, 2013 and 2016. We’re just trying to keep them on the road for now.
You’d be homebound or relying on ubers if you lived where I am.
I’m glad that I don’t. Where I live a car is a luxury and not a necessity.
Right? I saw the comment above and was like, “OK?”
You don’t have busses?

You’re probably living in ideal conditions for electric cars. Charging at home with cheap electricity etc.

Your job provides for the car with that milage though, right??
Nope, I’m classified as self employed.
buses don’t go anywhere useful. they also are dont’ show up, and even the high frequency buses, are never on time.
they are not useful or reliable.
But I don’t and I can’t even really afford a car the way I set my life up
