I'm about to start a new job, and I'm about to 3x my commute. I am considering selling my current, paid off car and getting a used EV that I could charge for free at work.

My current car gets around 17-18 MPG, so at $6/gallon I'd be spending about $550/mo on gas, plus wear/tear/maintenance.

Or I could get into a lightly used EV, and either come close to emptying my HSYA to pay for it cash, or take on payment for a couple years that's still cheaper than buying gas.

What would you do?
