You're absolutely right, it could go dead much sooner for anyone trying to power a family around town daily, and taking road trips on weekends.

If you keep your battery on a charging schedule you should realize the expected life of the battery, of course things happpen.....gas cars too!
If I am not mistaken my battery has an 8 year warranty or 100k miles.
Based on my usage that's about 15 years.
Whether or not you save long with a Tesla or any ev is debateable and only time will tell.
You buy it because you like the car.
Maybe you should drive one, might change your mind.
My friend wanted one but his wife absolutely hated it.
That's why you have choices.

Whichever comes first. 8 years is the time limit, 100k is the mile limit. He's saying it would take him 15 years to hit 100k.

Sure, a 50% increase in total atmospheric carbon dioxide since the beginning of the industrial revolution is just a coincidence

And by then the car would be out of warranty for 7 years.
Do you suppose the battery warranty is pro-rated like other warranty's? Does the language reflect replacement cost or depreciated ACV?
