    Warning: Battery Replacement Cost Increase (now $8500)

    You keep a spreadsheet on Tesla's losses per quarter? "The fanboys"? and, with that, I'm outta here... I love my Tesla. My Leaf would just be "ok" if it weren't losing battery capacity to the point of being useless for us. Thanks to my experience with Nissan over this and the 2g -> 3g...

    I bought my 2013 Leaf SV in August 2016 to hold me over until I got my Model 3. It had 12k miles on it and cost me just under $10k at the time. Basically a brand new car.
