Cost of ownership on my Tesla just doubled as I put new tires on today.

Posted by TWuG Nov 1 '19, 13:11

Now up to $1,400 over 21k miles and 19 months. That includes cost of power.

I hope the new tires last a bit longer than $21k miles. At least the new tires come with free rotation and alignment over their life at my local shop

- The burnouts and drifting take a toll. -- nm - zunkskunk scared stupid Nov 1, 13:14 1
  - I actually can't drift or do burnouts. Though I think track mode on the performance models allow both - TWuG Nov 1, 14:04
