Yes. Tesla is really ahead of the game. And I hope their batteries last and last.

But even then, the next question is when are the prices going to come down. Sure, the $35,000 Tesla is coming. But without tax incentives, that's very expensive for most of us. Sure, we need to factor in what would be saved by using electricity and not having oil changes and such. But there have been times that you could get a Mitsubishi Mirage for under $10,000 brand new from the dealer! It would be nice to see $20,000 and $15,000 EV's. Perhaps even $10,000 or even $5,000 long range Tesla motorcycles.
