Lthenderson, over the past 9 years, I was a happy Tesla owner, then a less happy Tesla owner, and now a happy Mercedes (EV) owner. You are barking up the wrong tree here. Teslas have numerous flaws, of varying importance, but their battery life and warranties are not one of them.That's absolutely not what you wrote. Here it is, verbatim:
I wasn't quoting every trim, only the base trim which is 100,000 as stated in the link even you provided. It wasn't and still isn't germane to the point I was making in my initial post from which you cherry picked your bone of contention. My overall point, which you evidently have missed, was that the OP left out/omitted many factors that increase their cost of ownership of an EV.You didn't refer to OP's base trim; you said this policy represents "many" of their batteries; and you mentioned charge cycle limit. All 3 are objectively wrong. We are not even arguing matters of opinions yet.Finally, the Tesla warranty on many of their batteries for 1500 charge cycles and 100,000 miles
Not only did you single out the least representative of their battery configuration (rwd vs lr/p trims), you then singled out the highest of the possible price range ($20k from $10-20k). Needless to say, $20k never represent the 60kwh base pack. Who's doing the cherry picking here?
