My buddy sent me his stats on the number of miles he drove and his fuel cost at the superchargers.
Over 4700 miles, his model 3 was cheaper to drive than my f150 by a whopping $60.
I told him I’d keep the truck.

So Koch is cutting the legs out from under their 100 million $ Standard Lithium investment.

so how much was it costing him to charge his model 3 at a supercharger?

This is why hybrids are the shite. 4,700 miles would put me out about 104 gallons of gas, or about $300 at current gas prices.

At public charges at current rates that is not at all surprising. People who have to do the majority of their charging at Superchargers will not see much or any cost benefits over gas/diesel. Those that do the majority of the charging at home will see a significant difference. Edmunds TCO stats show a 1:4 cost difference in fuel over 5 years for a Model 3 and a BMW 340i.
The real chink in the EV armor regarding cost of ownership remains depreciation.
