Wow, you really make it "complicated" when it's not.
Modern cars are more electronically complicated, but mostly much more reliable than their older injection engine counterpart.
Radiator flushes? Lol, it's now every 10+ years. Oil changes got yo 10k miles. You don't do trans flushes anymore.
And see, you replaced the throttle body yourself.
You whine about maintenance, just pay to do the mininal maintenance then, it's much less expensive than a new battery pack, or a new car payment.
That's freedom. Stop shilling for battery cars. It's not for everyone. You EV guys are all the same, forcing it in the throat of everyone. In real life or on the internet.
I'll explain: you twist every argument in being combustion engine = all bad and EV = all good. Like your maintenance argument which makes no sense financially.

Maybe you should read my other comments in this post more carefully.
From my previous comment here:
To be fair, plug in hybrids probably don't make any sense from a financial-only standpoint.
you twist every argument in being combustion engine = all bad and EV = all good.
Taking a side in an argument is not 'twisting'.
You have not explained how I am forcing anything down anybody's throat by having an opinion.
Have I demanded that you or anybody else buy electric cars?
Have I insisted that you give up your internal combustion engines?
Or have I simply communicated that I don't like them?
You are acting like a libtard SJW. As if I'm some kind of Nazi because I like my car, and horror of horrors, admitted it in public.
Plug-in hybrids are definitely not for everyone. You will probably never recoup the up-front cost with savings from efficiency. Obviously it would be a poor choice for you, since you would find no enjoyment from running on electricity.
I couldn't give a flying fuck what kind of car you like, so I'm really mystified as to what your problem with me is.

Why do you have a bug up your butt about the fact that I like my plug-in hybrid?
Why does that bother you? Am I not allowed to like my car?
What the fuck are you even talking about?
Explain to me about anything I said that is forcing anybody.
Seriously. Explain it.

I stand corrected, we get pushed so much up here to "make the switch", I read your message way to fast
