It is possible the comment referred to used evs in a couple years.

I see first-gen nissan leafs going for $3k, and I see tesla 3's for $16k

I'm sure a 3 grand leaf or a 16 grand Tesla will have a tip top battery able to provide years of V2G

V2G is actually a much easier scenario for a battery than driving down the high way, so not impossible at all!

Yeah, that was my point. The battery capacity drops as a percentage over time. Currently, you can get a $60K MSRP, 33kwh-rated used car for ~$10-15K, with over 90% of the original capacity left.

30kwh of tesla powerwalls is at least $23K. Sadly, those used cars don’t support v2h or v2g.
