Earlier this year, I made the switch from a gasoline-powered SUV to a Tesla Model Y, and after about 1500 miles (1728 to be exact) here are a few updates and things to contemplate before dumping oil for electrons.
Before going any further, this is not a post to get you to buy a Tesla, I get accused of this every time I mention my car, but to help you understand what I have learned about driving a battery on wheels for the past three months. And while you may not want a Tesla, and I don’t blame you, there are many other electric cars coming online soon like the poorly named (but decent looking) Ford Mustang Mach-E, the Rivian R1T, VW has several ID models arriving soon too and every other manufacturing is bringing some to market if these aren’t for you.
