    I’d rather have an EV, for a few reasons:

    • I have solar on my roof and can produce my own fuel for the EV forever
    • Gas stations need electric and regular deliveries of new fuel to provide you with gas
    • Gas goes bad fairly fast, so stockpiling or siphoning it won’t negate the above
    • The EV can be used to provide 120V power outlets via an inverter, and can do so while parked safely in a closed garage without suffocating you with exhaust
    • The EV battery can be used to store solar power generated during the day to keep fridges, fans and other electronics running at night
    • The EV won’t need oil changes to keep running, so I don’t need to figure out how to secure oil every year in this apocalypse
    • The EV can’t be heard from as far away if someone’s listening for cars approaching
    • The EV battery can be reused as stationary storage even if the car is crashed

      Gas goes bad fairly fast

      Pretty simple to stockpile gasoline for at least a year by adding a simple additive to it.
