I Was Going To Go Back To Gas. Here’s Why I Just Couldn’t Give Up My EV
When my Chevy Blazer EV lease ended, I set a $10k budget for my next daily driver. I was torn between a gas-powered AWD SUV (a must for California’s public lands) and a used Chevy Bolt—but the Bolt lacked fast charging and had flimsy seats, while $10k only got me a decade-old, high-maintenance gas SUV.
Then I remembered EV perks: no gas stops, quiet rides, instant torque, no oil changes or fluctuating gas prices. I couldn’t go back. Have you almost bailed on EVs but stayed for some small (or big) reason? Share your stories below!
