just not close to being affordable. I live in the Bay Area, and would otherwise be eligible.

In my case, I'm likely going to have to give up driving any vehicle sooner than I'd like to because of deteriorating vision issues. .

But I've always wanted to own/drive and EV.

The price of gas at the pump is ratcheting up, getting closer and closer to the $5 per gal mark.
