I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I'm wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

Father in law got one. Loved it until he had some sort of issue and needed to get it repaired. His old Honda Accord he could take down the block to any old mechanic but it was harder with Tesla. I think it soured him on it and he eventually ditched the EC when he moved out of the city

I think mainly the problem there is Tesla. They’re a closed ecosystem.
