Yesterday, we bought a RAV4 Prime.
It's really time. My pickup, that we drive back and forth between Upstate and Long Island hit 100,000 a little while ago. I want to go with an EV but no EV available right now is right for me, too big, not enough range, bad value. The Silverado is probably 2 years away and it's really too big and heavy for my use. With the small bed I don't think it's practical for workers, so I really don't know who it make sense for.
The Rav hits the nail pretty much on the head for now. We'll rarely use gas either Upstate or on L I and for the drive up and down we will cut gas consumption by more than half. It's just about the size I like, and I'll still have my pickup for if I have to haul something. Also, I can charge it overnight from a 120 v outlet
This is my wife's car, even though I'll be the one driving most of the time, so she picked the color; Navy Blue Metallic.
We got a pretty good deal by today's standards, but we did have to leave the first dealer where we test drove and did all the work for the sale. When we were at the second dealer the first salesman texted my wife saying that they would meet what we wanted. We still payed a little over sticker but we got twice what Carvana offered on trade. We should have it in 2 weeks!
