As a RAV4 owner, I know what you mean. Toyota and Honda both make good, affordable, reliable stuff. But I'm not sure either of them is gonna be big players in the EV market this decade. Counterintuitively, I'd expect better from Ford on that front than Toyota across the next five years. I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but Toyota seems afraid to get away from gas entirely unless it's through their hydrogen cells.

As a Ford owner, I sure hope you’re right. I like mine and want an EV but the Lightning is insanely overpriced.
