air source heat pumps, which have gotten WAY more efficient these days. Depending where you live, it might make more sense than even cheap gas.

If you car gives up the ghost and you only drive a small number of miles, consider a used older model EV like the Leaf (but onlly 2015 and newer, or a PHEV Volt (2016 or newer). They are WAY cheap to buy, and have enough range to handle daily driving needs for jobs, errands, etc. The Volt is also great for distance driving, as it has 53 miles of EV range, then 350 miles on gasoline. I have a friend who bought one several years ago, and his fuel consumption dropped from 600 gallons a year, to under 50.

Monthly service charges are junk fees, pure and simple. As solar becomes more popular, utilities are raising them instead of rates.
