- 2023 MME Premium AWD SR (10/16/23)
- Thread starter
- #1
(FYI, This is a cross post of a question I just made in a Reddit sub)
Hi, I'm a lurker who has been considering an MME since their debut. A few things have held me back: 1. Cost, 2. Availability, and 3. Fear of making the "big switch" to a BEV.
#2 is alleviated, as there is a sweet '23 premium AWD in Grabber Blue at a nearby dealer (released custom order).
#1 will be tight, but I think doable, even if I don't get the interest rate I want.
#3 is almost gone. I have had a PHEV since 2019 as an intermediary step bc I know I want to make the switch in the long run. Plus, my husband is keeping his ICE.
Okay, so that now leaves the new fear (although I probably should have been thinking about it 🫣) of cost of maintenance. Specifically, if I were to get in an accident. It seems like accidents end up costing a grip for repairs due to the car's tech (I know insurance covers it) and the time without the vehicle seems rather long.
Is this a reasonable fear or am I making mountains out of mole hills?
TIA for the feedback.
