    Fits in my fifth wheel

    Bought the car because it fits in my RV. Its a cabriolet so tooling around with the top down electrically fun. High price but offset with $7500 credit from the government. Mercedes quality. Cons: More range....does not have enough range to make it to the dealer without trailering.

    Niche car that's what I needed

    This is my 4th Electric Car. It has limitations (no fast charging), but it also is fun to drive and has a lot of storage places inside...seriously. I used to have a LEAF and still have a BMW I3, Tesla Model X and this in the garage. The ED is my go to for quick around town drives. Yes it takes 3 hours to charge if empty...but I knew that going in...and have never come home empty in any of the EVs.

    I have a very fragile car

    I lose a lot of time in charging the battery of the car, I need more than 3 hours to charge 100% and that gives me between 80 and 90 miles. I feel that at any moment the electrical system can fail
