re: Negatives of owning a Tesla?

Are there any long term Tesla owners who can speak to how the car did, or didn't, age and "hold up" over say, 5 years?

If the car does hold up well, do you think you'd be willing to spend $20,000 or more for a new battery pack when the first one wears out?

I've had mine a year with zero issues. Also, the battery is covered for 8 years and 120K miles. I won't keep mine that long regardless but you're covered for a long time on the battery. Most are lasting about 300-500K miles and Tesla's new batteries they're making in Texas are supposed to last to a million miles.
