      Yeah fair, it’s mostly useless in my state, but very prevalent in other states I just forget it exists. But also swapping a stove, water heater, and AC is still a lot cheaper than a new car. (I mean the AC is the only one that’s even close) are there other things people use gas for I’m forgetting?

        Heating. Swapping which is far above the price of a used car.

        Edit: i realize now you said water heater, but switching off gas generally involves swapping the entire heatinf system, the costs of which are usually 5 digit for a single family home.
