If they had decent range ones for just a bit cheaper...

It's minimum like $30k right now and that's just too much for most

Plus a lot of people still don't have anywhere to charge them.

Otherwise I'd have liked to have gotten one

A Bolt, after all the tax incentives, comes in at around $18k!

Really? Can you actually get them at MSRP in any decent amount of time?

And is that federal? I thought Chevy ran out of their tax incentives...

GM did run out, but the rules changed in 2023, so there is no more cap. GM and Tesla get the incentives again.
