I switched to EVs in 2014, and went fully electric in 2018. My problem is that there still isn't a good alternative I can use for long distance trips for my family of 7. I'd love to switch to something like the Kia EV9, but I almost have my current car paid off, and can't afford another $80k car. I'm conflicted, because I don't want to switch back to a gas car, and I believe my current power company is on track to be 50% sustainable/renewable in 5-10 years. I feel like it could take me years as opposed to months to find a replacement EV that works for me.
Rent a van the few times you need one
... What tesla are you fitting 7 people into these days?
Because they only have one vehicle that isn't a sedan and... he was a full mask off hatemonger long before the cybertruck actually hit market.
The only 7-seater available in 2018 was the Model X. Yes, it was clear he was an asshole as far back as 2018, but he was still a huge proponent of mitigating climate change (in hindsight it was clearly a grift for him), so at the time I thought it was a net positive. I used up a lot of my savings to afford it, so it would be difficult for me to switch to anything that isn't a gas car.
