Currently it has 139, 000 miles and drives like a dream.
Our 10 year savings on gasoline is between $19 to $21 thousand, depending on yearly mileage.
Our average monthly home electric cost for charging at home is $30.00. Over ten years about $3,600. Do the math.
Breaks last about 10 years as the Tesla has regen braking
No oil changes
Tires and filters and other minor maintenance.
It’s a sweet car.
