How much battery life do you have remaining on yours?
That’s one major concern
Battery life
Second is it would just be a work vehicle for me. We take trips in cars a lot. Don’t want to plug it in and wait an hour.

My inlaws have had a Tesla for a few years and we vacation together a few times a year and it's always an issue for them, but overall they wouldn't go back to a gas vehicle, for the inconvenience of a recharge stop a few times a year, vs the benefits every other day of the year. They don't tow anything and are retired so they don't really even drive much. Great car for them. I wouldn't mind having an EV but I have two paid-off SUV's so $80,000 on a nice new EV would buy a whole lot of gasoline. I can't justify it yet. If one of mine dies, I'll give them a look.

I have seen zero degradation of the battery in five years on my volt. Too early to say on the rav, it's only a year old.
I would not be on here talking about how I don't regret my purchase and how I'll never go back to pure ICE if the battery degraded.
