I've heard, or read, a smug-faced FUDster say so many times that, "you're not really taking an ICE car off the road by getting an EV; someone is driving your trade-in".
Well, how about we turn this around and make a pact to trade in our Model 3 after one year, every year, for one, two, or three years in a row, thus putting a new EV on the secondhand market once a year?
If you're financing, this effectively means that:
a) you'll be out of pocket for the monthly cost for an additional year (or two, or three, based on your "pledge"),
b) you'll get the latest and greatest version of the car (and be rid of "first model year syndrome", get to try new options/colors),
c) someone with less financial means will be able to enjoy an EV.
Who's with me?
