Sure, if you have $48,000 in cash laying around and can buy next week. I personally would go with the bolt. It's almost $20k cheaper and pretty much the same car.

Hahaha, that's like comparing a BMW to a Hugo. Plus 500 horsepower vs 200. Yep, same thing

The new lower version is 4680 type batteries. There's really no major difference in the two. If it were me I'd go for the long range. Well worth the extra 3k.

They installed your charger for FREE???
This was the case for a time [insideevs.com], but not sure if they are still doing that.

Otherwise, people may be relegated to hiring an electrician to make sure they are up to code. People have already started sites to match electricians with people looking for a L2 EV charger install at places like this one [localelectricianbids.com]. I wonder how many of these are being created using ChatGPT...hmm.. sorry, off topic.

I bought a Tesla and most Tesla buyers don't tell the truth about EVs. YouTubers say only good things about them and they don't tell the truth.EVs are really fun to drive and faster than any other vehicle I drove. Technology is good too. But, 1. Phantom drain 1-5% battery drain per day just like any smartphone. You don't lose gas when an ice vehicle is parked. This is really bad when you forget to charge and you park your car at the airport or family or friend's home, where every mile counts. If you use sentry mode, you can lose 10+% per day. 2. Glass top really gets hot and you need to have the AC running while the EV is parked, which uses the battery a lot. 3. In the winter, the battery loses the range a lot. 4. You will have the charger connected all the time because of 1 2 and 3. Once you buy an EV, you will know. So, is it really saving money when it's plugged in all the time? And super charger is expensive.. same price as gasoline. 5. When you travel with an EV, expect to add at least 1 hr time to 3-4 hr trip for charging and getting to the charger. If you really want an EV, buy also an ICE vehicle.
First, if you don't have charging at home or work, I would not recommend buying an EV. It is a waste of time to constantly charge at a Supercharger and you will hate it.

Phantom drain in the newer S/X and 3/Y is very minimal if sentry/cabin overheat is off. I parked at the airport recently for 6 days and my MYP only used 2% of range.

Don't buy an EV to save money vs gas.

Yes, EVs lose range/less efficient in cold weather. Depending on the model it can be 10-30%.

Regarding road trips, your statement of 1 hr for every 3-4 hours of driving is wrong. This largely depends on the route and where chargers are located. There are many. It certainly won't be as fast as an ICE, but I can do a 400 mile road trip (6-7 hours) in the summer with less than 40 minutes of charging in an MYP. That same trip takes less than 15 minutes of charging my MS LR. This is assuming you have charging at your destination.

ICE cars also lose range in the Winter as well. And there's also the noxious and cancer causing fumes you are breathing in at the gas station. Smilie

Except known to catch on fire and banned from public garages with charging

So even if your breaker box is 50 feet from your garage and you need to add an additional box they will pay that $2500+?
The length of the wire probably ranks pretty low on the list of factors that contribute to the cost.

Can't speak for everyone else, but as for me i was about to buy a Tesla until Musk went off the deep end so I bought Toyota instead. Will never consider a Tesla now. Good luck to all of you who do.

No, lots of us—including me—are purposely crossing Tesla off our list or considerations. Others aren't, because their values are different. That doesn't make people phonies.

It's whatever fits the narrative of whoever pays the bills.

Every neighborhood I'm driving past is getting new Teslas in their driveways.
