I am perfectly fine with electric cars. Not as many moving parts and emissions equipment, no complex transmission to fail, etc. Also I don't have to sit in traffic behind a semi belching diesel fumes. If I can pull up to a charge station and have my car charged for a week of commuting in 15...
18s are still under warranty. Usually when the cars are a few years old, aftermarket parts ramp up. I know you can find anything on Rockauto, but if you use your car everyday for commuting, you can't afford to wait 3-4 days for parts. That's why I was wondering about local parts availability.
Asking about common items, radiator, alternator, brake pads, rotors, AC compressor/evaporator/condenser, shocks, etc. I was curious if most parts stores carry these or are they usually special order items.
