The state might not be openly promoting EV use, but you can bet they aren't going to be shy about holding their hand out to collect those 'road taxes' from other ways if they cannot get it from gas/fuel sales.
Everything gonna cost you one way or the other. That’s it.
I laughed, cuz he took bait.
Uncle Sam has his hand out everytime you reach for your wallet. He takes when you earn a dollar, he takes if you save a dollar, he takes if you spend a dollar, if you spend that dollar on lumber to build a shed he will tax you for having it as long as it stands.
If you buy an electric car you pay sales tax, tag tax every year, and tax on the electric they use that gas cars don't.
Personaly I think thats why elections are as far from April 14 as they could make it, and we should change that so that we vote while that tax payment is fresh on our minds.

Is this a one time shot or every year when you get your tags?
I know WA is planning on a mileage tax. Just like gun laws the ugly taxes/laws/regs are creeping over the country like cancer. We need to put a wall around OK.
I can see OTA getting to make all roads toll roads due to EVs.
I heard this too. They said the reason it hasn’t gone into effect is because they don’t know how to track the miles driven by each vehicle YET!!!
tracking your mileage isn't that difficult if you're driving a newer vehicle. You know that little flat panel up on the stoplights? It's also reading every piece of information your car gives off. If you have any systems like onstar or similar, that panel is picking up your vin, make and model. And on the toll roads, the RFID panels can track you at every point their installed. So when you get on and every exit. taking backroads might defeat it to some extent, but Id almost bet they start putting something on stop signs too. I think the biggest issue is going to be how will they sort through all of that information? I'd would surmise that inspections will come back so they can record your mileage every year and just bill you based on that.
LOLz, $100!
I'll double check, but I believe my friend pays $2500 annually in "stationary-banditry" registration fees, to off-set lost gas tax, on his Model 3.
