Wholesale maybe. But add in distribution and then delivery to your independently owned stations the pre pumped price is much higher. Most survive on in store sales or repairs.
Sure your EV's are coming not due to market demand but mandates by dipshits... when that time comes enjoy the blackouts and pedestrian power transportation. Windmills aren't going to fill the gap nor will the current grid support the added load. And I put little to no faith in the Federal Government to fix the infrastructure... just look at the last trillion dollar package passed. Less then 10% is earmarked for "actual infrastructure" and with the Governments track record on projects getting done these days... let's just say enjoy the walk.
