If they ever made one that could go longer distances. I have seen only 1 recharging station for such cars at Fred Meyer. To make them attractive, need many more recharging stations. Until then, no thx

We have an EV for local & shorter range trips (have gone to Vancourver, WA & Eugene, OR) and a Hybrid for longer range trips. Electricity is $10/month, and nothing once we have PV. No maintenance cost

Because I want to make that choice being I'm a free individual in the United States of America. Free to make my own choices and not be told by a dictator governor of the State of Oregon. FDKB.

Government is already controlling you when you drive. Ever stop at a stoplight? That's some university indoctrinated bureaucrat deciding how long you will be made to sit there and wait for his little technocracy to "turn the light green" so you can go.

The answer itself is explanatory enough. It's too expensive. Yet the charging situation isn't set up to be a reasonable solution. This is because the industry is totally out for reoccurring profits to charge for such electric vehicles. You can blame commercialism for this greed.

Although it’s environmentally friendly, it is far too expensive. Perhaps in the future when corporations become competitive in this area and sell vehicles at cheaper prices.

We were fortunate to buy an EV new with substantial discounts and rebates, credits. $16K for a $34K new car. I don't think it's too expensive.

Absolutely! Coming from states where you do pump your own, it is definitely faster. At places like Fred Meyer that serve many people, attendants don’t always get to the people who got there 1st. Arg!

Yes, but, I wish they all had those clips that allowed you to start fueling and then hang out in your car until the tank was full. Some still do, but, I feel like they're increasingly rare.

Nothing like waiting for the employee to finally get to refueling your car and then waiting again for the employee to hang up the hose. Having said that, I do use full service when in medically need.

It is better for the environment as the nozzle does not remain in the tank with fumes escaping until the attendant is able to return to your vehicle.

Let station owners decide how to serve their customers and then consumers can choose where to buy. I prefer to just take care of it myself rather than wait until the attendant gets around to me.

The excuse that pumping gas is dangerous is ridiculous. Millions of people pump gas everyday without injury to themselves, others or their vehicle. It is worth it to me to pay for the service.

The amount of jobs that would be lost seems would be a blow to a part of the community that already struggles to afford the cost of living in our area. Job elimination for convenience, no way!
