I read a few posts but not the whole thread, but had to say less than 2 cents worth.......
My son and I were bored out of our minds at a mall in San Diego, California, waiting for several hours for the wife and daughter who were in the Apple store........ We eventually found a Tesla store and googled over the Tesla Model X.... the fit and finish...... this model had six seats, the middle two slid forward to easily enter the rear most 2 seats......... gull wing doors for the passengers............ front trunk that maybe would hold two shoe boxes......... price unknown - we did not ask. I see Tesla's on the freeway and you can tell the build quality looking from the next lane over at 70 miles per hour and I have old eyes. Do I wish they were affordable? Yes. Are they affordable to me? No. Are they quality? Cutting edge? Our home town mall half way between San Diego and Tucson Arizona has a Tesla charging station. I bet there are no local Teslas here. When I get good and ready to buy an Electric car I will get a used Nissan Leaf because of my price range. However, Tesla has made a great stand for Electric Vehicles. They did not turn their back on them like Chevrolet with the EV1. Bob Rice would like the Tesla, but he would have some self-invented words to describe the price, the sheer number of batteries, the computer system not repairable by owners, the sales lot being inside a mall, the chargers not available to the public, the sheeple who buy them (sorry for that). Make it a battery powered electric day!
