Electric Cars Soon Will Cost Less Than Gas Cars, Research Suggests
I couldn&#x27;t buy a Telsa for the total spent for my &#x27;03 Camry, currently pushing 380K miles, including fuel costs.<p>In the 12 years I&#x27;ve had it I&#x27;ve put on 350,000 miles. Even at a conservative 25 mpg and a generous average fuel cost of $3 that&#x27;s:<p>$15,000 in car. 
$42,000 in gas.<p>This excludes maintenance etc, but I fail to see how I&#x27;m saving money buying an electric car unless I&#x27;m already rocking solar.<p>Maybe it&#x27;s cheaper by the mile but my assumption is any fuel savings will be quickly erased in additional insurance costs.
