GON, you're scaring me.
I understand the allure of the CA weather, etc., but soon, electricity in CA will be rationed and when you are able to consume it, it will be $.60-80/kWh
In 5 more years, there won't be many small gas engines on the consumer level. Those that are still running will be traded on the black market for some high-dollar stuff. Those that maintain the things will be posting on forums across the country begging people for $15 in parts and willing to pay $500 to get them somehow, someway.
Do you know that a good many things aren't shipped from a business in CA to a private individual in another (free) state? There's been a few threads on this very forum where people are asking why they can't get a dealer parts department to ship a much-needed part to them in an eastern state.
It's going to go on and on. More people that have a brain will be leaving. These people that have stayed in CA, IL, MA, CT, NY, NJ, etc their whole lives because of family, that generation is getting old and the new generations don't sit still. They have no ties to anywhere.
Your comments are silly. I lived there for 55 years of my life. Short changing and predicting what happens in California-is an exercise in futility-and most often wrong. They are mandating EVs-the grid will be shored up to handle it.
