second car -EV??

[agent006140]

If someone is thinking of getting a second car,would you recommend an EV,if so,which one?
Just to park it in garage in case ?good used one would be fine?
But not sure if it is safe to park in attached garage if it can catch fire ?

A Toyota Hybrid would be too much money for a spare !
I am thinking of KNDI,at one time you can get one for under $10K,I have no plan to take it for long ride,it is just neighborhood runaround,come to think of it,we have 2 gas stations,none have EV charge stations.

$28K is too much for just neighborhood errands,also EV insurance premium is higher.
They have a deal years ago ,you can get one for under $10k.

I am still driving my 18 years old Japanese car,no major repair,just new batteries,it is a certified preown with 2k miles.
I paid $20K for every thing-car,sales tax,etc and it turns out to be a very good investment.
I feel bad for folks who are shopping for new car,their average car payment per month can be $700 and insurance $275.

If you got the spare cash to pay for an overpriced EV which costs more than a gas vehicle to run, get EV anxiety every time you use it in case you can not find a charging point that works and when you do that could be a long line waiting before you to use it so you are sat there for a couple of hours.
Since Biden ordered extra charging points to be installed 2 years ago not one has been installed.
Toyota do not even sell EV just hybrids which I would go for.
