    The sad part is that manual transmissions are going away, which means I’m completely SOL if the electronics die. But I guess on the flipside, there’s no transmission to break, so that’s nice.

      Give and takes. I’m waiting another 10 years till I hop on the electric vehicle camp. Just want some more competition and reliability.

        I think competition is pretty good right now, the main issue is range. Toyota is claiming to have much longer range battery tech in like 3 years (they’ve promised before), so if that materializes, we could see really compelling EVs in like 5 years.
