I would also have to have other ICE cars at my disposal. It can't be EV only.
What do you guys think the "take" ratio is on EV cars currently? I really don't see that many on the road and I'm in suburban NY area.
I'm not so sure Joe Public is ready to give up ICE SUVs yet.

Seems like 0.7% market share from 2011 to 2017, and around 1% in 2017
Yes, that's the way I look at it. Cheapo EV frees up funds to have an even more focused and extreme weekend toy.
When you do try an EV, make it an AWD+ 500+hp version (my first ride in EV was in that P90D at Mosport). If you start off with a Leaf you'll just confirm your bias of why EV suck
EDIT: OP, I think you should push back your model 3 reservation until the production issues sort out, and until you drive new competitors like i-pace and mission e. There's too much cool stuff coming down the pipeline to commit to a beta test (unless you are a HUGE Tesla fan...)
