I appreciate that perspective but it’s quite a bit different from mine. I suspect it would be different from a lot of others as well. For me, removing up to 80% of the main ongoing cost of vehicle ownership (gas and ICE maintenance) is a lot more than gravy. All the tech, additional performance, etc is the gravy. And that gravy is largely offset by the lack of range, lack of charging infrastructure, etc.
Having said that, I do think you’re right that it likely makes sense when the time is right to get a new vehicle. However, I don’t see it as being necessary or a financial win just as an unnecessary upgrade. I think I was hoping for an excuse to replace my 2018, but it likely makes sense to wait 2 or 3 more years. I guess that means I should place an order soon lol
