It might - do good, that is. The faster used EVs get cheaper, the
faster we'll get ICEs off the road. So what if the early adopters keep
their EV 2 years and get another EV. As long as they don't revert to an
ICE, who cares?

I really, really hope this trend is short-lived. Trading gas-powered

that stay on the road for a couple years isn't going to do the planet
any favors.
I think a good way to put the brakes on this trend...would be a real
promise for battery upgrades.
