My motto is, if it can't be fixed in my driveway, I won't buy it. My 1999 Jeep just hit 318k miles, still gets 21 mpg, completely factory drivetrain, and it will still smoke the rear tires. I hit a doe with it at 60 mph and fixed it in my driveway for under $300, only had to buy a new radiator and battery because I have a stockpile of spare parts for it. I built a new engine for it for under $3k and it's waiting to go into it when it's needed.

Show me a person who can fix their EV in their driveway without $20k in tools and scanners and computers and not to mention all of the expensive parts. EVs are disposable because of the expense of maintenance when they break. Not a single EV owner has a spare battery pack or electric drive motor sitting on the shelf, ready to go.
