This seems to happen every four years. Someone starts a war in the Middle East, and gas prices go up. People have a short memory. Gas prices will go back down, probably after the midterms if sanity returns. And then everyone will run out and buy a new gas guzzling SUV again.
Meanwhile, used EVs are very competitively priced. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Lol they say Time a flat circle but I expect it to period to be more than 4 years. Lol
I really remember gas prices going up under push after Iraq, post covid vaccine, and now. Maybe Obama had little bumps in gas prices? I know Obama did drone strikes in middle east.
Yeah EVs are gonna take the fuck off real soon because this is actually an oil shortage similar to the Carter administration.
