Honda and Toyota parts are easy to come by. People consistently drive these for 20+ years. No need to throw down $30k+ on a new car when automakers still treat EVs as something that should be marked up compared to ICE vehicles

30? You are talking 50 to 100k easily now.

Damn. I have not been paying attention to the price of new EVs in the US. I've just been like I'll check around 2035
