Yeah, but "ma freedom"
That's right. Ma freedom allowed me to purchase a gas guzzling Jeep instead of a hybrid or EV. Viva USA!
Did you know that just because you can doesn’t mean you should?
Absolutely. So tell.me why YOU think I should not have gotten a Jeep. I can tell you, though, that your opinion didn't factor into my purchase decision.
Oh don’t get me wrong. I got very clearly from your first comment that no opinion of any kind factored into your purchase decision. It was all System 1.
And please don't take my responses as I don't care. I do care, but i need to balance the needs of my family.
I just don't think EVs are there yet in terms of feasibility. I considered them, but it's just not for me yet. It will be at some point.
Oh man, I had thought you were being ironic above lol
Ha. I was wondering why my comment was still in the positive for so long.
