    NO. My 15 year old vehicle still runs great. Don't drive a lot of miles anyway.

    Saw this on reddit. Hummer EV battery: 4500 pounds, $60k dollars sixty.

    At least we're saving the planet, right?

    So it seems it is true that these EV batteries cost just as much as the car itself. I've been told not to buy used EVs, because no matter how good shape the car is you gotta beware that the battery might be ready to go.

    I will not. It does not go the distance yet. 2040 or something I will buy one.
