I agree! My objection is always the fact that my money has been used to subsidize what is currently an inferior technology. When electric can offer the same practicality as IC then I’m totally game. Though then you need to consider the remainder of the equation like charging stations and the electrical grid. Pretty soon pumping dead dinosaurs out of the ground looks pretty green....
