EV Life

YouTube

I used to drive an electric car. After all the questions people were asking me, I thought it would be a nice idea to start a YouTube channel where I explained and showed how it was to own and drive an electric car as a college student. I sold the car when I entered the University of Florida in 2016 so the channel didn't last very long. It was a fun learning experience!
