Things we enjoy like the internet and GPS were also a result of govt policies. FWIW, being able to write off your lease on a luxury SUV that you use for personal use as a business expense is also a type of subsidy for fossil powered vehicles (in case you are worried about EV rebates etc).
FWIW, we have a Tesla MY and X5. Both have their pros and cons. For city driving and commute no comparison the MY is better suited for our family needs.
I have found that the only people who don't care about expenses are those who are very wealthy or deep in debt living pay check to pay check. I was surprised to see the number of people go to food banks last year in new luxury cars in the US. To each his own I suppose.
To me the 45e is the best value in lux mid-size SUV. It's a super package.

TX is CA with lesser taxes you say?
God bless!
I want to leave Tesla alone in this discussion.
Remember, it’s the least reliable car of all ages.
We know it. Consumer Reports knows it.
