From a comment (not mine) to article: Car Dealers Reveal an Alarming Problem with Getting Your Electric Vehicle Serviced (westernjournal.com)
I had to have my hybrid towed 90 miles to the nearest technician and they just threw high-priced parts at it until it was not worth the cost of repair. 
Never again.
Unless reversed, this sort of thing seems to show a route toward a dystopic parody of our society. Between pricing private autos out of reach of most, and the growing urbanization of our population (this farm boy-turned-city dweller included), we could see urban compaction pushing toward hive cities with Bird scooters (https://www.bird.co/) as the prime source of everyday individual transportation. Rural life would be less and less tenable due to this loss of regular vehicles (though perhaps motorcycles will survive--I had to find a way to include THE GREATEST MOVIE ENDING EVER), with corporate farms providing food and such to these urban centers. Even collective "Mount Carmel"-type compounds might become too isolated to survive. The cosmopolitan nature of such communities, plus the natural globalization,* can lead, ironically, to ethnic compartmentalization of the hives comparable to “Time Trax”-style "enclaves" for Whites. On the bright side, it's possible that current SCOTUS 2A precedent will stand, so at least we'll all be able to go about with handguns. At least, some Warhammer lore (at about 3:55 point) suggests that. (See 178 for more fun.)
*Due to technology growth, a certain amount of globalization is inevitable, even as with urbanization, even in times of nationalism--i.e., Trump can MAGA and we lead the world, but America will still be part of the world. Trump leadership could, though, avert the dystopia described herein.
