There's a pattern with Tesla threads here. I don't care if you all wanna discuss the deal or the cars but it always turns into paaaages and paaaages of bickering back and forth and nobody ,except for the few involved, enjoy that or wanna wade through that. So cut that stuff out, please and thank you.

Full-coverage car insurance for 2022 Tesla vehicles costs an average of $3,007 per year or $251 each month. This makes Tesla auto insurance premiums approximately 50% pricier than for the average vehicle with a full-coverage policy.
Vehicle Avg Insurance MSRP % of MSRP
Toyota Camry $1,822 $26,320 6.9%
Tesla Model 3 $2,296 $40,240 5.7%
Ford Explorer $1,780 $38,570 4.6%
Tesla Model Y $2,530 $52,630 4.8%
Just to be clear, the performance is NOT the longest range model Y.

Your insurance is going up unless you already drive a $100k + car. These are priced based on cost of repair and history of Tesla drivers crashing more than other brands. So expect an increase. Depending on where you live, your cost to charge may be a big savings over gas or not. For us, gas is very expensive, so using electricity is a savings - even though our local utility is also criminally over-priced (SDG&E).
Generally, you will want to charge at home over supercharging. Very nice to wake up to a full charge for the day. Expect to have a 240v plug installed or a dedicated wall charger.
The up side is the cars are nice and drive well. I don't see having to do anything more than changing tires, swapping out cabin air filters, and filling washer fluid. This month we got free Full Self Driving as a trial. It's cool, but I don't trust it. Not yet. it drives like an old lady - one with some vision issues. I would think in another year or so it will be pretty good.
Included games, browser, Netflix, YouTube, and other goodies make charging stops painless. I really like it for the family car that's used for taking the kids to school and activities. Not really there for long trips unless you are totally in California. Then it's ok as there are plenty of charging stations. But as you leave the West, it's a bit more of a concern. At present the ICE/ICE-hybrid is better for long trips.
