...which are going for $50k-$75k USED.

Did you forget to amortize that number or is it included in the $20? Will you pay off the loan in the year 2326?

reply
A new gas F150 isn’t that far off they cost roughly 50,000 as well which is what my truck cost, new. I had a three-year interest free loan. It’s all paid off.

WTF do you drive, a RAM 2500? If the gallon is $4, the $350 is 90 gallons.
reply
A RAM 2500 gets 12 city. 40 miles city per day over a month would be 100 gallons, which at today’s average price in California is $565.20/mo

They’re doing a bit better than that.

$5/gallon, cheap af.

Gas is around $5.50 here in Seattle. Lots of unknowns to consider.

Ignoring that your math doesn't add up at all, whenever someone tells me how much money they are saving per month by switching to EV, they always conveniently leave out the $35k-$80k cost of the car plus new tires every $often miles, while my fuel-efficient ICE car is paid off. Oil changes twice a year, buy oil in bulk at Costco.
