I'm ready for a $15,000 EV.

But I suppose the Ford, GM, and whatever else is left of the US auto industry will never be ready.

The problem is that Chinese models are so cheap because of government subsidies and slave labor. I still think that Western models are too expensive because of plain greed, but the Chinese models are not without problems either.
