if Tesla didn’t sell pollution credits to the highest bidder, someone else would be selling pollution credits to the highest bidder. I'd rather have Tesla make money off of them!

I think this depends a lot on the EV infrastructure around you.

Driving an EV in the SF Bay Area is super convenient -- I know all the chargers off the top of my head and maintaining enough range is second nature to me now. I regularly road trip my Model 3 as well without any issues. I don't even look at the miles, just battery %.

I recently got an ICE car for fun on the weekends and thinking about gas, oil changes, preventative maintenance, and repairs has been way more stressful than charging.

Give the infrastructure a few years to catch up. Now that NACS has taken over in the US, things will only get better.
