    I deal with a ton of car fires that are caused by crashes and fires caused by defective parts, and the vast majority are good old gas engine vehicles, and most o the people that are killed in an accident with a fire were killed by the crash, not the fire. The media LOVES to do stories about Tesla, much like they dont seem to mind psycho taxi drivers but love to do stories about Uber/Lyft drivers who do anything illegal.

    I'd like to see if you could use it for what you do. Range, charging, etc. Make a YouTube page showing all intricacies of your life and then you can quit your dayjob. You're welcome!

    Sounds like you're pretty well set on getting one. I'll be interested in your experience if you do.

    My only question is do you get enough miles to a charge for a full days worth of driving? Sounds like you put a lot of miles on a vehicle.

    Have you looked into any other electrics? The BMW i3 doesn't seem too bad.

    ^ Aside from the part where BMW hasn't made a quality vehicle since the 80's.

    Prius > Tesla.
    Fuck that fake company.

    I'd probably get sick of everyone flipping me the bird, as I know I do that to every Tesla I see on the road...

    I was hoping people could give me some input on issues they have had with Teslas to help convince me it's a bad idea! So far the only people that have said anything negative about the cars are people that haent owned one. I know Tesla owners are huge fanboys though, so it's tough to get real input. I am leaning toward Tesla because the 300 Mile range is perfect for me, I drive about 250 miles a day 3 days a week, and 70ish on the other 2 days. The thought of never putting a drop of gas in my daily driver sounds awesome...and having driven one, I have to say the feel of going 0-80 in 5ish seconds in a family sedan is pretty addicting.

    I agree about the BMW, but Tesla seems pretty real to me, I see them all over the place, dont think I have that grreat of an imagination.
