They haven't been in it yet. I need to take one home over one of my weekends. Maybe you can help arrange that.

I don't think your usage pattern is typical for a Tesla customer.
It still cheaper than gas though. At the rate I'm going at it's $10,400/year if gas stays at it's current price, which I doubt it will. If I had a house and solar panels I'd be driving for free and only have to worry about battery replacement. I better start making more $$$ to get that house.
