+1.
Not a complaint by any means, but I took a pay cut to switch from peddling to engineering. The folks who wrote my commission checks thought I was pretty good at selling.
The above reality bending dream creations as you describe them are what looks to me like examples of every peddler's stock in trade. I just cut to the chase in my last sentence.
Part of my point was - and not trying to paint all EV buyers/wannabes with the same brush - it seems to me more than the usual percentage of EV buyers/wanabes are (pre) brainwashed. That is, the greenwash media and the rest of the usual suspects have done a better than usual job of tapping into the herd/lemming aspects of group identity/behavior, and of creating the illusion of necessity.
FWIW, that's not a knock, just an observation. I'm as dumb/brainwashed as the rest (easiest mark to sell is another peddler). As confirmation, I've got my mind set on the Porsche EV. Biggest worry for me is I'll be dead before the Porsche hits the showrooms. Only difference w/ me is I just think I see it in myself more than I suspect a bunch of 20 something nerds see it in themselves, but opinions vary.
