This feels like a good time to note that I haven’t purchased fuel for my daily since 2023 when I got my first EV, a purchase that was subsidized by the US at the time.

This may be true but maybe folks here know that and are appreciating the symbolic comeuppance of a specific vehicle associated very strongly with a fucking Nazi who stole all our personal information, illegally fired thousands of people - while suckling at the teat of nobid big government spending.
