Should my next car be electric?

Asked by janbb (62876points) March 1st, 2021

I’m expecting to buy a car in the next couple of years. I have in mind what I will get and it comes in a gas or an electric version. The electric is a lot more money.

Basically, I usually drive locally but I may take a long road trip once or twice a year. My concerns are the availability and the charging times of recharging and the costs of the electricity at home. And on the other side, are fossil fuels going to become harder to find in the next 10 years or so.

I realize that going electric is better for the environment. I don’t need convincing on that score. I’m just not sure yet about the practicality.

Putting this in General. Off-topic will be flagged.
