It’s not as easy doing it as saying it. What does an electric vehicle cost? How much time are you willing to (ahem) invest in riding the (diesel powered) bus to all your stops for the day? My pickup is about due to be traded in (a little over 200K miles, and some of the dash lights (which aren’t individual, but part of the wiring harness) have died. Among other things. We’re looking at about $20K or so to get it into “I want to drive it” shape. So instead, I’ll be downsizing to a smaller vehicle, probably not a pickup (sigh: Very inconvenient, but not very OFTEN inconvenient) that can tow my utility trailer. But I don’t expect anybody else to do that unti they’re ready to swap vehicles anyway.
PS: How many amortized miles of long- and short-haul trucking have your online purchases racked up this year?
