    well y’see the car is both product and subscription as you’re tied to purchasing gas, tires, parts and maintenance, and when it’s worn out after being so used to driving you’ll probably get a new car

      Big part of why the whole industry is resistant to EVs, and why those that are doing EVs are introducing obscenely expensive subscriptions to basic features, is because of the reduced number of maintenance items on a battery/electric motor compared to an ICE motor.
