Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 2783976, member: 44"] My (gas) car doesn't have a 500 mile range. I'm with you though, paying a premium for reduced performance makes no sense to me. A friend of mine has a Tesla S model. It is a comfortable car with plenty of pick up. Electric cars are very quick off the line. The fuel range on it is north of 300. The issue is that refueling takes about a half hour for a a little over 'half a tank.' He says he doesn't mind stopping and getting a coffee every few hours. The car tells you when you need to refuel and how far to the next super charger. I suppose it's like anything else, you get used to it. [/QUOTE]
