Wanted an electric car but it's just a too expensive for me right now with both the purchase and my house electric panel upgrade I'll have to do for a charging feature.
I got an ebike instead and have been using the crap out of it. Using the ebike instead of the car for simple trips like going to nearby cafes and grocery stores totally changes my day in a positive way. It's actually postponed my want to get an electric car. I can say im partially green now but without having to have made such a huge financial sacrifice.
I actually went the other way and ended where you are now. Had an electric car and ended up letting it go when I actually did the math one $/trip. Between the payment, power and insurance, I was at looking at something like $50/trip.
