Sure I'd love to move to the city, but rent/costs are waay higher in the city. I couldn't afford to move to the city, even considering the cost of gas.

I don't thinka Ev are going to save us, but they give those wanting to make a change the option. That said if you can afford a fancy new Ev you likely have the available income to move closer so idk.

Edit: just wanted to say I agree with everything you said, just bring up problems with implementation for the sake of discussion :)

Sorry to hear that. All else being equal, home and travel costs should be cheaper in cities than in rural areas, not higher. Sounds like an economic incentive that should really be reversed.
