Personally, I really wanted to get an EV. The range issue, while real, is overblown. It's similar to the people who have to get Jeep or 4Runner for the hypothetical off-roading when their actual off-roading is a suburban supermarket parking lot.The majority of people don't drive long distances on the reg- if you do, that's something to consider, but everyone thinks about their occasional trip and doesn't consider that they never drive that far on a daily basis from home to work and back. For them, an EV works, and you can deal with the range easily for the random trip to see family somewhere. Unfortunately, I have an issue where I have to deal with the occasional evacuation and at present (based on what I know and have experienced) an EV can't quite work, so I am looking at hybrids for the next vehicle purchase.Anyway, I think you are doing the right thing!</blockquote>
