And its still better for the environment than driving an equivalent gasoline-powered vehicle.

There's nothing to be learned from a Joe Rogan podcast.
I learn a shyt ton from Joe Rogan podcasts…

No hate. I'm all for the transition. I just worry about the battery life.

No hate, I own one. I charge/top up at home for pennies on the dollar. Getting solar and Batteries installed Monday so I'll be really good.

Speaking from a person who's worked on electric vehicles -- they can be quite the handful to work on, and incredibly dangerous if you don't follow the service manual to the letter. The current electric vehicles have a LOT of current and amperage flowing thru them, the voltages are higher, etc; one mistake and it's game over. Not to mention, replacing a battery pack or battery cells is not all that easy; it's very time consuming and takes special equipment to do the job properly. A GRX-5100 used to balance current and voltage in the cells of a battery pack after replacing a battery or replacing cells in a battery, that one piece of equipment starts at around $12k. Then you need lift tables to remove the battery from the car, install it back into the vehicle, etc.
