One thing that is not well known is that Tesla has a huge Supercharger Network--these chargers add >300 miles of range to your car per hour. Obviously, this is slower than gas, but you need to stop for gas weekly, and you'll only to charge on the road a few times a year. I use them when I drive to NY. Check out the map--they are plentiful along any highway trip.

I don't always use the 3rd row, but with kids we need to have it. The only Tesla with a 3rd row is the X? At $80k plus the charging stuff for my house, I can buy two 4Runners and have $10k to waste on fuel and maintenance over, what's the lifetime of two 4Runners, 25 years?

I mean, I'd be willing to go a little over for the initial investment if I made much/most of it back over the lifetime of the vehicle, but it's just not there yet.
