These threads make me wonder if I should consider an EV for my wife's next car. Her general commute is maybe 25 miles a day and having one less oil change to worry about would be nice.
Yeah, that's exactly it man. We've all made bonehead mistakes and you will learn from them regardless of what propulsion system your vehicle uses.

I would say that if your wife's commute is on the shorter side to give it a try. That was our plan to start with her car and keep my truck. We realized once we owned one that it was just an improvement on that aspect of our lives and got a 2nd. The truck will likely be for sale as it's sat for about 5 months now with a battery tender on it. The couple of times I've driven it I'm amazed at how much of a POS it now feels like even though I love that truck.
