And NO I would not give up my old cars because they are fun in their own way. What's the difference between me and the guy/girl that replaces everything in his old car with modern stuff? LS engine, 6 speed computer controlled trans, Corvette front suspension and 4 wheel disc brakes.

I like them both .
During the cold snap my Ram with Cummins would not start to help a another family member with frozen pipes. Tesla was -17F inside the car.
10 minutes on defrost nice and warm and ready to go help. I did have to wipe the dirt off the seats when we got home since it was a dirt floor crawl space.
By the way during winter with corrosives on the roads to melt Ice what Pontiac should I be driving?
