That's a pretty optimistic (?) scenario in a nation where surveys report that 40% of the population say that they'll never buy an EV under any circumstances. Events can sometimes change minds, though. US ICEV fuel demand has proven pretty resilient when it comes to price. What really galls drivers, especially rich ones, is serious refueling inconvenience - like long waits in long lines for limited fuel amounts. Fifty years ago, in October of 1973, a coalition of mideast states attacked Israel on Yom Kippur. The US took Israel's side, resupplying their military. OPEC's response was an embargo on oil shipments to the US and several other Western nations. If you were alive then, you know what happened next. If you weren't, your favorite search engine is your friend. As someone once said, "all we learn from history is history repeats."
