Sounds good.

Buying a new car is a fools game. Although you do get a 7.5k tax credit, but the amt of depreciation is just not worth it.
Buy new Tesla for 100k. Sell it for 50k 3 years later. And Teslas even hold their value better than most cars of this luxury class.
Oorrr buy one used for 45k. Sell it 3 years later for 30k.
As more and more superchargers become built it will be almost just like gas stations. Most of the time you arent taking your Tesla on long trips, that would be when i would use my Prius anyway so i dont put the miles on it. I understand you can charge your Tesla up to 80% in about 20 min at a supercharging station.
