I was an early adopter, and I went back to gas. My car only had like a 30 mile range though, which was cut in half during the winter. I'd consider that new Mustang SUV though, that looks like a bad-ass vehicle.

A 30 mile range? What did you buy, a Sinclair C5?

My parents bought one of the mustangs. They are pretty conservative people who live in FL now. My pop says it is his second favorite car ever behind the 98 BMW 540i he had and they’ve owned a lot of cars. It’s wild to me that he loves this electric car so much.

By all accounts it's a fantastic vehicle. Idk why they put the Mustang name on there, which earned it a lot of scorn, when it seems like it can stand well on its own. I know I dismissed it as stupid myself because of the name, until I learned more about it.
