I rent luxury cars for long hauls and keep my fully depreciated high mileage daily drivers on the road for commutes.
I do the same. Why put 3,000+ miles on my car when I can rent a new (or near new) MiniVan (Family Trip) got a few $$$
For the Electrics and Hybrids, they have their place and are getting better quality. They are not as "environmental" as most of the users think they are.
I am not sure how the states are going to add road taxes to electric cars? Current the tax is part of the cost of fuel, but with less petrol vehicles, and more electrics they will have to make up the difference someplace. Will there be an extra fee to renew the license plates?
At the higher altitude around here in Denver, the electric vehicles make some sense because they don't loose power due to altitude.
I put my $100 in to reserve a CyberTruck. If they actually have a 500 mile range and can rip a 10-second 1/4 mile, and drive itself, that would be pretty cool.
With a truck bed, could throw a generator back there if needed ;)
