Living with my Lucid Air Touring has not been pleasant - it’s a buggy mess.

    The cars of yesteryear broke down but you could fix them - or have them fixed. Good luck with buggy closed-source software.

    Not to mention, the cars of yesteryear didn’t spy on you, and didn’t require a subscription to turn on the heated seat or whatever.

      You can still fix anything that breaks on an EV. You just need updated skills. And you don’t need to fix issues as often, because EVs are more reliable than old junkers.

      I have had this car for 6 years and haven’t had any issues that were more egregious than an ICE car. I’ll heed your warning when it actually materializes. Until then, I’ll enjoy the lack of problems and maintenance ICE cars have. Fortunately, I’ve been able to pay off my car note and save money because of the lower total cost of ownership.
