If I was in Hawaii paying 45c per Kw and $4.60 a gallon the EV would only be $14 cheaper, roughly 25%, big difference.

In summary you guys pay too much for electricity and not enough for gas, and Id take Hawaii over here any day
Its 19 cents per kWh here, and I make too many long-ish trips anyway.
