In Northern California: My friends who already have a Prius just bought a Tesla. I think about $35-$40,000. They had electricity rewired in their garage for charging. $10,000. Charging stations are everywhere, even in our rural town. The prices for these cars today are like home mortgages years ago. How do young families afford homes and cars that are energy efficient?

I agree! Here in the Bay Area, those are the families whose salaries are generated by Silicon Valley’s tech companies. They buy $1mil+ “Smart” homes, send their kids to private schools, and buy Teslas. I for one, will not be buying a Tesla. They are brilliantly made but knowing that Musk reaps tons of money just makes my skin crawl.
Simple answer there Irenie..They need to 'haul stuff' so a pu truck or a used SUV fills the bill.., until they find a decent place to live and generate a couple children.
Right. Everyone doesn’t have a hybrid or even a home. But the idea of affordable transportation, is more universal. Move from fossil fuels to alternative energy for our planet’s health. That has been a possibility for decades. And is political.
