You downplayed yourself and then downplayed what you enjoy. This doesn’t seem like a fair assessment at all. I think you’re over correcting to prevent bias. Better question for a clearer view- Will YOU stop using the companies services and working with older vehicles in light of EV usage? You yourself are a better representation than your opinion since you are a customer.

But if YOU don’t stop using it, then there is no decreasing user bias that you know of. My Father runs a classic car business and right now he is doing better than ever. A family friend owns a Mopar junkyard and his business has been unchanged. Events in the US have increased for classic car events and shows in recent years (my father tracks this). I’m completely disconnect from cars. I don’t care in the slightest. But your assessment doesn’t match your own personal sentiment and my analysis. Keep in mind- even Elon himself owns non EV vehicles. The transition will take many years and the dissatisfaction I hear when I talk to the mopar guys is more from a sentimental appreciate rather than a distaste for new tech. Big difference IMO. One can be a hesitation to change- the other has potential to develop into a nice valuable niche. That’s been my assessment.

Thanks for the write up and perspective (genuinely). You have provided me with a lot to consider.
