There's something to this. EVs might be a little too easy. At least at first.

I hope once we start wrecking them up and getting access to low cost parts and such, people will start getting inventive.

Right now, they're too good and too expensive. Suppliers, supply chains, therefore competition is all on the other side of the planet.

We've already seen some stripped down and supped up Tesla's, and I saw someone who bolted a motor to an old Toyota by just cramming it to the transmission with half a clutch welded on.
