I just got a used ev. I needed something else because my car was having issues that would be expensive to fix, and wanted an ev anyway, so the decision wasn't at all motivated by gas prices, even though the timing was. I didn’t want to wait and have used car prices skyrocket to the point i couldn't afford one.
