There are a bunch of advantages to an electric car. The first is not
having to stop at gas stations at all. Sure, they have to be charged,
but that stop is already programmed into your routine.
Second, they never, ever need a smog check.
Third, there is no "oil change interval".
Fourth, they can't leak oil.
Fifth, they pollute, like... nothing.
Sixth, you can't carbon monoxide yourself (or anyone else) by letting
them idle in the garage.
Seventh, their mileage is actually higher in the city.
There are probably others, but it's getting late.

But you don’t. That is the point. I have a charger at home
and at work and at my other work. 3-5 seconds. None if you
have a passenger do it for you...

You still have most of those hassles with electric. You still
have them all if you're not at a free charging location.

Time it. You will be surprised. 5 minutes. Gotta drive in,
park, get out, gas cap off, swipe card, wait for
authentication, select fuel, wait for beep, put hose in, pull
trigger. Wait a couple of minutes, reverse all of the above,
stand in rain, snow gas fumes, noise.
From the moment you leave the street to being back on the
street 5 minutes.
And it costs you money!
I charge with solar.

We drive past gas stations every day. It's what, 2 minutes?
If you travel >200 miles your time table is screwed as you
need to charge. Your route also can't be the scenic one.
It costs more than my current car which I have today and I
doubt it comes close in terms of comfort.
Oh and the auto pilot doesn't try to hit oncoming traffic.
That's a nice upside!

If your daily trips are fairly short, you would only have
to plug in once a week.
There is nothing but upside here.

Even if it were 5 seconds that would be more time every
two weeks than what I spend at a gas station. Then I have
to pay for power anyway...
Not a fan of the front end duck bill. The rear has too
much Prius. Side looks great. Interior looked unfinished
or space aged.
115k preorders for something you won't see in two years,
though? Woof.

No interest really. Plugging in every time I get home?
Yuck. I love the updates they do with the Model S and
the API power is really awesome, but I'm more for NA
over boost, let alone electric.
I saw the website and thought "Who's going to preorder
a car that won't be announced for another hour?".
IPhone users :P
