If I had a house fixed up with a windmill in the backyard and solar panels on the house....with all my power requirements contained within my reach....and my job was only fifteen miles away....YEAH, I’d buy one. I admit...the battery replacement cost is going to be a ‘bear’ to handle, and there’s probably some $1,000 disposal cost related to them. But if I could drive to work and have zero cost related to fuel....it’d probably convince me to go this way.
All of that can be achieved for less than the Tesla price. You would be paying for the name ‘Tesla’, not the ability to drive an electric vehicle.
job 15 miles away? take a bike. Tesla has between charge range from 150-225
