$40k after rebates is a decent price, but i can't even fathom how much fucking corner cutting it'll take to get there (most of the retail force/floor space will be cut but that sounds like just the tip of the iceberg)...each base model built will lose them 3k USD
I went from a 2014 Hyundai Sonata to a Long Range, RWD Model 3 and I have roughly $3500/year in fuel savings so yeah, his numbers are somewhat realistic but they aren't for everyone. The more driving you do, the easier it is to justify the cost of a Tesla
