... or what good habits has your EV got you out of?
My local shops are just under half a mile away, so starting up my car just to drive there and back would have cost a disproportionate amount of fuel to do so, and not been good for the engine either. This weekend, though, I just jumped in the Chevy Volt, happy in the knowledge that I could afford the 3 pence to drive there and back!
I was also thinking about buying myself a decent road bike this summer so I could start cycling to work and back. A saving of around £7.50 per day would have been quite the motivation I needed and the bike would have paid for itself in a summer. But now the EV is costing around £1.20 per day it will take over 6 years for a bike to start to pay its way.
Has anyone else changed any habits since taking the electric plunge?
