    Renting a ICE for your road trip is probably a better plan than buy an EV with only that use case in mind. Renting a truck the day you have to haul shit is a better idea than driving a truck everyday.

    People need to stop shopping for a vehicle based on the .01% task and focus on how they drive 99.9% of the time.

      Yeah, but somehow that seems very hard for many people to grasp. Well, actually, people who buy fat SUVs or trucks mainly do so to show off. They’ll always come up with reasons why they really really need that thing but that’s mostly just rationalizations.
