I get gas for a third of what I used to pay because I use a third as much. This is my Honda Civic hybrid. It cost about the same as a normal car and, it's a normal, practical car in every way. No, I don't have to plug it in at night. It's a luxurious four door sedan that I can drive 500 miles without stopping and then another 500 after filling its little gas tank.

I plug it in overnight about a third of the nights and it goes where I want every day. This is my Tesla Model 3. Most people think these are terribly expensive but the price has come down. Now it costs about the same to buy as any nice sedan and costs less to own after that - cheaper fuel, cheaper maintenance, better resale when you are done. You know that isn't why I bought it. I bought it for the fun.

I'm not alone. Look here to see Tesla models are four out of six of the best selling American made cars.
