Sadly stuck but still over the moon on my EV.

As I mentioned before the need for 4 wheel capability where I winter has forced an ICE car on me. My EV in PA is still the best with minimal issues - tires. inspection & insurance are most of it. I'm out of warranty so the one issue - is the flap door for the charger which I push closed manually. I've heard Tesla comes in at over $250 for this fix so I'm stalling. I also need to replace my 12 volt battery - not because it's out but at 4 years it's a timebomb so.... My main gripe is the up and down the Coast and gas use at my place in the sand. The CyberTruck is the answer but seems further and further away. Elon has decided Tesla can take it's time for we reservation holders while he pumps out the 3 and the Y. Understandable, building his versions of the VW Beetle and taking over the EV world. It does however try ones commitment to electric given every month I wait is more cash to the oil companies. Of course inflation is also a reason why waiting for the Cybertruck is plenty frightening. 1st World Problems, eh? I so miss Circe.
