How much is your local "Trump at the Pump Tax?"

Driving habits are very important in order to achieve 50 or over in those cars, but in a Prius, and plug in versions, not nearly as difficult, especially starting with gen4. I was always able to exceed those old government economy figures by my driving. The 85 Camry hatchback I bought new for $11k was always in low-mid 40’s on trips, was amazed by it at the time because it was also comfortable and could carry a lot.

 

Ironically GM scuttled their Chevy (edit;VOLT) which primarily drove Electric for most owners - including yours truly. We had one, but like the Gen 5 Prius, if you're well North of 6 ft tall it's especially difficult to get in & out - once youre getting older & joints are stiffer.
If prices stay high, what a great opportunity it would be for GM to bring that Tech back into production in one form or another
The other manufacturer Chrysler gets a decent amount of sales with their plug-in minivan. Who would ever think something as heavy as a minivan could get mileage like ours, turning on how infrequent you burn gas.



Having just over 30,000 miles after nearly 9 years means yeah - we don't drive that far - especially since retiring.

I was able to convert ~$65 k of Tesla, no dividend and capital gains tax into my solar roof with over $1,000 per year cost avoidance using Biden incentives:

• Starting second year of many more to come.
• My house is more valuable due to solar roof
  • My life is more affordable and independent

Could be? I feel like I was being asked to believe that a horrible bogeyman had forced this on America, when as near as I can tell it was just another law that made it through both houses of congress and was signed into law by the president.

I don't have the clearest memory of this particular legislation coming around and being enacted but I didn't pay as much attention to politics back then- this was something that happened 15 years ago.

But I'll wait for @John321 to respond.
