They hint everything will be available, but you're probably looking at $30 grand for everything less the battery. You can get a wrecked prius for a fraction of that and it has everything you need, Teslas cost more. Funny I don't see a warranty comment. __________________ casual notes from the underground:There are some "experts" out there that in reality don't have a clue as to what they are doing.
