    What kind of “repairable, non-disposable crap” do you think EVs have that gas cars don’t?

      It’s the parts, stupid! EVs use proprietary parts that cost a fortune to replace. We’re talking thousands of dollars for proprietary headlights, whereas an old gas car you can buy new headlights for $30 at an auto parts store.

      It didn’t have to be this way. But manufacturers saw an opportunity for maximum greed and they took it!
