CA is going the other way. Within the next few years I expect to be paying more for my car registration tax, because I drive an EV.
I get the people complaining about it, and saying it'll be a disincentive to go electric, but I'm driving on the public roads with a 3 ton vehicle, adding to that wear and tear, and I'm contributing nothing in the way of maintenance because that's paid for by the gas tax. That I don't pay.
Not really a fair deal.
