NYT fakes Tesla Model S results.

[AZGrizFan]

Despite the critics, Tesla's Model S has been doing really well:

I was going to post this, thanks. It's great that Tesla is doing well AND got 99/100 from Consumer Reports.

The car gets 300 miles per charge, costs $1 to charge ...

How long does it take to recharge?

I think 6 hours to fully charge. You can cut that down by purchasing a supercharger and/or getting a twin charger installed. The wonderful thing is that each Tesla is built custom to the buyer. You have to plan a little but if my wife and I bought one, the City of Charleston has charging stations where she works and is installing them around town.

There are mobile apps and website to help you find charging stations.

I live in Manassas and we have five charging stations...

...I've never seen an electric car here.

edit: but hey, I'm all for future investments. They're probably not too expensive to build anyways.

We have about 4 or 5 and I only know of 2. There are a few Leaf's around.

One of our neighbors has one. Damned good looking car...nice interior, 7 seats, and it pulls away silently and VERY quickly. Impressive in every way.

And she, the driver, is very hot. An Italian.

If my work had a charging station installed I'd have bought one in a heartbeat. @ 3.50/gallon, you can buy a lot of car when you don't have to buy gas.

Walking the dog the night before last and apparently a neighbor just got a white one. What a great looking ride. Thought it was an Aston Martin at first.

Anyone know what the battery situation is on these things? Seems like you could run into some major expenses down the line if they need repairing/replacing...
