I work from home. So it's not a huge issue for me. But if I were commuting it would be.
Fun side thought: I sold my F250 in November. It held 40 gallons. At $5/gal, it's $200 per tank. It would go 6-700 miles if you could run through a whole tank without breaking down. lol. I only used it for towing, hauling, and supporting the tow truck companies when it was being towed home on a flatbed. So it wasn't a big fuel cost to me. My brother in law commutes to work in a Tundra on 35s. He's spending on the order of $6-800 a month for commuting fuel. That would pretty easily cover the monthly cost of a commuter car EV. He makes plenty of $, so it's not a hardship. But it probably is for a lot of folks who don't need to be driving full size trucks as commuter cars. If these prices hold up long run - I think we'll finally see a price correction as the full size trucks go on the used market. It'll take a few months for the pain to finally drive the folks who commute in them to sell em though. I'm already seeing LC200's and LX570's hitting the classifieds.
