I was a guest on the Teach and Retire Rich Podcast talking about electric vehicles this week. I do want to reemphasize a point that was made several times on the podcast, which is that for many folks their first EV should likely be an "around town" commuter car, which means it doesn't have to … Continue reading Talking EVs on the Teach and Retire Rich Podcast

Coloradans: Buy a New Chevy Bolt for as Low as $15,000 Today (while they last)
I've written previously about why Coloradans who are in the market for a new car should really consider an EV, due to the up to $7,500 federal tax credit and the $5,000 Colorado state tax credit (some restrictions apply on the federal tax credit). That's still true, but there are some changes that happened January … Continue reading Coloradans: Buy a New Chevy Bolt for as Low as $15,000 Today (while they last)
