No lie, if I could afford a car right now, I’d want a cheap electric. Beyond that, I’d LOVE to EV convert my dad’s old truck.

I've actively been shifting my life away from needing a car, but I'm in the same boat. If I wanted a car, I'd want a cheap little electric sedan. But I've owned an EV before and have no range anxiety, whereas anti-EV sentiment is all over the US talking about how will I ever survive if I can't drive more than 300 miles in a day without a 20 minute charge, as if everyone does that constantly and it wouldn't be 5 hours of driving, which is miserable.

If you think cars are bad, definitely don't buy a boat!
