The only reason i would buy top line Tesla is because they are frigging FAST.....they look pretty cool too.
Add to that the fact that in some areas they give you the electricity for free. I spent an hour with the Tesla salesman in the dealership in Seattle by Amazon. It was very informative. And I’d have been tempted if I lived there. The subsidies, free power, acceleration, and the bragging rights (in liberal seattle) would be worth it.
But I live in rural KY and drive 150 miles every day on my commute. And the power is not free.
And when you rack up the negatives in the Adam Ruins Electric Cars video, NOT getting an electric car is, for my needs, a no brainer. If only the arrogantly ignorant liberals understood that electric is anything BUT green.
