    Funny I was just listening to a report on NPR about early EV buyers going back to gas cars over the past year. I wonder how many of those are people now unwilling to get another tesla (for political reasons) or do any shopping for another brand, and how many of those early adopters found shortfalls in where the tech was and are looking for certain specs that manufacturers haven’t achieved yet. At least one of the anecdotes on the report was exactly that. I think someone had bought one of the earlier Chevy evs and was disappointed by the range and charging speed/ capabilities as they lived in an apartment.
