The car market, including secondhand vehicles, is very expensive at the moment, so not everyone has the luxury of just getting up, going to their local dealer and buying a new EV or even a new car that isn’t a gas guzzler. Is It More Eco-Friendly to Just Buy a New Vehicle? So before you buy anything, do some thorough research.

I wouldn’t say he sounds smug and self-satisfied, because I hate understatement too much, but I would say he seems unlikely to buy an electric car any time ever. Rolling coal is also illegal, of course, because it involves deliberately modifying a diesel engine to make it more polluting (while also increasing horsepower, so it’s not all bad).
