I stayed at a Wyoming motel with a Tesla charging station. It got used fairly often, as it's a long way to another one in that part of the country. To his credit, Elon built an impressive charging network. None other comes close.
It got me curious so I looked up the electricity sources for Wyoming: 84.3% coal! And those superchargers run at 480 volts and draw 300 amps. I wonder how many Tesla owners know this.
Tesla owners are on a cloud, they don't care. I will say, I rode in a Tesla, damn they are quick and quiet.

Don't be a thermometer, be a thermostat
How much does it cost to replace Tesla batteries? I contacted our local Toyota dealer and asked the cost of replacing batteries in one of their vehicles and they would not tell me. I then contacted Honda and asked them the cost of replacement in their vehicle. Surprise surprise they also would not tell me.

This should be a hint of the costs
