After all, this money is reflected in the underlying value of the asset itself (as opposed to burned like gas, oil or interest.) The real guess to the equation as to “does this make sense” is what rate will the EV depreciate at.

Didn't mean to insinuate that the music was bad. Overkill is an old metal band.
