this statistic does not account for Tesla loyalists, as three-quarters of Tesla owners indicated that they would continue with EVs.

Some people just like Elon Musk

I know one person that had EV and went back to gas, but they're a tenant and had to do the whole drive and wait at a random parking lot for a long time which they didn't really like doing but also isn't safe for them as a woman. So far the only friend of mine who had an EV actually.

Their lease ended and they said fuck it.

I still might get a hybrid because gas is so expensive. We're fucked regardless, I guess.

Yeah I don't know anyone who has an ev who travels so far they have to wait like that. Granted im in a major metro area so like many employers have stations. So folks charge at night and then also charge while they are working. I think that shows how few ev owners their are though as there are like only a few charging spots at work.
