Yeah, are you sure about your math? Because this math has already been done, you are living during the time of the exponential curve, EV is now 18% of all car sales, this happened really quickly, you can either talk **** online or you could make Hundreds of thousands of dollars in Tesla stock, the choice is yours.
The $24,000 battery is the new one, every day theres new bull**** stories about how Elon musk is going to go to prison and Tesla’s gonna go bankrupt and how EV is done, etc.

Previous model 3 performance crew owner checking in.
IMO it was a neat experience but it wasn't perfect and the rest of the industry has caught up to or surpassed most of Tesla's tech.
Also, the actual driving experience was extremely soulless and not all that exciting. The straight line performance was hilarious but that party trick wears out quickly.
Also, these things have become like vanilla ice cream on the streets. They're everywhere and not really special or interesting cars anymore.
Sig line can't be a novel

Family got model Y,
Went yesterday to take a glance.
First impressions so far:
all of those videos of parts coming off the car, chipped paint, poorly executed trim etc. and those are all complete bull****, either a used older car is being used for such videos, or the video maker has an agenda, perhaps they work at a Ford factory, so they damage the car, and then make those videos, the reality is that there is absolutely no problem with the build quality.
That being said, the quality of the actual materials and how the car is put together is in line with New $40,000 cars, trim on a $55,000 Lexus, or something is obviously going to be more expensive and better executed. No denying that. Door handles design is garbage, getting in and out especially in the backseat is poorly done design wise.
Will report back with more experiences when driving and in snow etc.
Overall impression so far is very positive. Thou my big ass would be getting model x.

Kusok is the type of guy who will sacrifice everything for a fruit roll up.
Kusok is the type of guy when asked to borrow money, he will give you his boyfriend's wallet.
Kusok is the type of guy who will drown a fish.
Kusok is the type of guy who will calls the cops when his drugs are missing.
Kusok is the type of guy who gets cremated before he dies.

Yeah I think the bottom line is that the money will be made, whether you pay for it up front in the purchase price or over time through other costs or whatever else
I'm just waiting for EV adoption to hit a point where they can start fleecing everyone through electricity costs, taxes, tire costs (more weight and torque), software locks, etc

EV Sales are going down though, Tesla's latest results were bad too.
That said I'm pro EV's BUT only with modern solid state batteries, current EV's are garbage with old lithium battery tech that if go on fire you're fcked. Also range is still a big problem, especially in colder weather.
Maybe in 5 or 10 years but now? Lol better of with an ICE car.

Imho this is what’s being said on TV, these people are absolute scum, and their advertisers are ice cars, this is why they are going to fill our heads with absolute garbage about Tesla, and the slow down in the third quarter was because they are revamping the factory to speed it up, This was planned and well known in advance,
The batteries are totally fine, plenty of people drive long distances in cold weather, there are chargers everywhere. I see it as garbage being fed by the Ford and GM advertisers in the media.
Like this stuff about being burned alive for five days inside Tesla, or being charged $21,000 for driving in the rain, etc., just a total horse****, these are statistically by far the safest cars in the world.
If you compare Toyota Camry to Tesla, model 3, Camry is actually more expensive, and Tesla has many more features and technology, and then you have to consider the price of gas, there’s no way a sane human being would choose a Camry over a tesla anymore.
