Comment on Tesla Model S – Cost of Ownership vs. Honda Odysseyparent

Comments

What's a let-down about it? Legitimately curious.

The problem that needs a legitimate solution is that of the 8 to 12 mile per gallon SUV. What is needed is an electric Suburban. What isn't needed is another $100K class non-S, non-U vehicle.

Try to throw a couple of kayaks, bikes, rowing shells, some lumber or camping equipment on this sorry-ass Tesla design.

All you are getting is more comfortable entry and exit if you use it exactly as you might a car.

If you put anything on the roof the rear passengers are trapped.

I've owned a range of SUV's and minivans over the years. I couldn't even begin to imagine having a real family life with kids with the Tesla offering.

I mean, tomorrow I am going to Home Depot to buy five sheets of plywood for a project. They are getting strapped to yhe roof rack. No problem.
