My dormant thread should be some help: > [@Future EV/Hybrid Plans, AWD edition!](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/future-ev-hybrid-plans-awd-edition/988126): > > I know we have a ton of these threads, but this one is a bit more specific to myself and the spousal unit, so I figured I’d create a new thread to further investigate our options. Setup: since the wife finally finished her PhD and nearly immediately secured a job with a decent income, we’re finally ready to consider retiring my vehicle, a 2002 Subaru Outback Sport with 120k on it.
