My only issue with PHEV is carrying around the extra weight of two power sources, plus the complexity of running both means more can go wrong and there is more maintenance. EVs are so much easier to maintain. However, I get why people want them. If my truck came in a PHEV I would get it over the hybrid. If my truck came in an EV, I would get that over either; but I’m not getting the F-150 EV because it’s the size of my house.

My Prius has been maintenance free aside from standard things like oil changes and replacing filters since 2016.
It’s probably the most trouble-free car I’ve ever had.
