    Electric Vehicle purchase, Yes or No?

    Don’t be conned by the Electric Vehicle story Hybrid or full, they have a battery What are the limits? What about trade values? Charging takes time, lots of time No charge? What to do Fossil fuel taxes pay for roads, how will EV’s be taxed? Crash safety is important? Fire safety is paramount We need the minerals that are not here Find a power source Electric fuel can cost as much as gas Will the monopoly of electric sources raise the rates? The cost difference in new electric vehicles is huge. Maintenance happens on all vehicles Battery versus tuning, $ Are electrics a planned obsolescence? Who can fix them? Resale is a guess but my bet? Poor Poor resale makes them 40% more Environmental facts vs exaggerations Cost difference buys 15 years of fossil fuel

    Due diligence research completed? Now what?

    Due Diligence research completed? Now what?  EV sales are not up The public is aware of Electric vehicle Fires and deaths Manufacturers are hurting from EV failure Great negotiating requires great due diligence. Avoid cash or shopping talk. No matter what you offer, the dealer will try to bump you. Don't acknowledge the asking price Always ask for a better price at least twice before making an offer Talk what you know after they make 2 offers Assertive, not aggressive                                                     Hold your lips together tightly as the dealer plays his cards Don't take the dealership’s position or attitude personally ACV versus allowance. Either way works but one at a time works best Due diligence is your ammunition.
