Green at Last

Say "hi" to our much desired and long-awaited Hyundai. We have finally gone green and got an electric car! We have a Lucid Blue "green" SUV 😀

I'm so, so happy to have a car that fits in better with my environmentalist mentality and philosophy. Using fossil fuels has been jarring, but up until now, necessary, in order to get around.

I've always hated that the best things for the environment, or our bodies/health are the more expensive, out-of-reach options.

We were able to get good manufacturer rebates that matched the current federal ones available (Hyundai doesn't qualify for the federal rebate because not enough of it was manufactured in the U.S. so Hyundai simply matched the rebate to make it competitive). We also tapped into Maine's state rebate - together that amounted to $21K off - woohoo - it made us feel as if we were getting a good deal.

So spacious! I hope the better posture, angle and knee space under the steering column will benefit Dale's back issues too. Wait till I introduce my kayak to my SUV next season ...
