Hi msw--I'm not worthy! Seriously, nice job on the math.

I have a 2017 Tesla S, it's my third EV. I have not done the actual math for several years--the plummeting price of gas may have changed things more than I thought. At the time I did the math, electricity at my house was 1/3 the price of gas per mile.

Bigger picture--I was psyched to see from the article that the total cost of a Tesla 3 is approximately average compared to a gas car, but I did not buy electric for the $. The thing I love is the combination of high performance like a Corvette, smooth/quiet driving like a Caddy, and environmental friendliness like a Prius.
