The website says the batteries will last for
at least 100k miles. Here in Washington State
we would charge our Teslas with hydro power,
and that renews every long soggy winter.

I wasn't able to load the buy tab and get
a price, presumably there is a waiting list
and this is an expensive sports car.

The best way to cut back American imports of
fossil fuel, is to add a couple bucks a gallon
to the cost and get people on the bus. If gas
were $6 a gallon, I might consider the fuel
efficient Honda Civic, which gets twice the
mileage as my Taurus. Of course in the summertime,
you might as well drive nothing--just keep your bike
tires inflated. Saving the car for the crappy season,
my fuel inefficient Taurus will last a long time--
many cold rainy winter commutes.

I probably wont be in an electric car for at least
another decade.
