The problem isn't fuel cost. Never been the argument.
So the argument is the lower lifecycle cost? The less emissions benefit? The economic benefit of using American produced and distributed fuels and the advantage this leads to in a foreign policy sense? The increased quiet of EVs over their fire breathing brethren? The morally questionable aspect of demanding a mode of transport fueled by the same stuff our parents used which somehow requires us to be as wasteful of valuable feedstock and environmentally ignorant!!
Now I am confused, if those things don't matter, what is the argument?
The argument is the same as it is in the hundreds of threads where hypocrites who don't actually own one of these cars tell everyone else to buy one.
Haven't seen much of that. Certainly I tell everyone to buy one, but I also own one. Maybe you are referring to another forum where everyone who doesn't own one tells everyone to buy one?
