Our Model 3 was 37k before any state and federal tax incentives.

At 17 cents per kwh, I can charge the pack complete for $9.18, which takes me 250 miles. I use far less than that daily and it's more than enough for the daily grind.

I charge at home and never see a pump.
I get HOV access.
I literally don't have to drive it as autopilot is literally that good.

The total cost of ownership is much lower than you might think. With the mileage my wife puts on it, it's just about paid for itself.

To be honest, I could really care less if this car was electric. It's improves my experience and quality of life on the road in a way no other car is able to do. Leaf blower cant deliver the same owner experience. Comparing the two is just silly.

Money saved goes into Tesla stock, I bought my first share at $200, and you know what that looks like today... Not a bad run since their market cap is now larger than Toyota.

My point was that hybrids are confused technology... I don't care to meet it in the middle, it's an inefficient place to be. I rock 100% battery and I happily I burn dinosaurs in my 4Runner on the weekends.
