    Not for the total cost of ownership (TCO)
    The model Y takes first place on that, $1500 over 7 years

    Where are you getting that? I’m referring to the chart posted above. TCO for the Bolt is $31.7k over 7 years; for the Model Y it’s $43.9k.

    Oh gotcha, sorry. I was talking about the TCO after purchase.
    Bolt is roughly $9k vs. Model Y roughly $1500

    Whatever this forum told me to do
    I have seen ONE Bolt. Ever

    in the houston area

    it seems odd to compare such a low volume car to a Tesla

    they are not equal

    media bull corn continues

    Oh I know Tesla stands head and shoulders above the Chevy Bolt, but it’s not odd to compare the two if people are going EV for the value. The Bolt is a very cheap vehicle. If your workday consists of commuting in and out of a city, you’d be hard-pressed to find a commuter with more value and a quicker return on your investment.

    I’m still looking forward to the day the insane EV subsidies (to the tune of $50k per vehicle) run out.

    There are bolts all over Denver. Not as many bolts as there are model 3s, but I see a lot of bolts and leaves.

    I don't know what y'all's experience is with Tesla, but if you inquire about a new Tesla, they send very nice follow up emails.

    Someone is really thinking about those words.

    it's appealing.

    test drive soon...to see if "someone" likes the X better than the S.

    Test drive their plaid model. I like how when you approach the X (as the keycard owner) it’ll atomically open the door for you (all the way) and close it for you

    Automotive design cycles often don't coincide with market whims because it takes so long to develop something it may not be what the market is calling for by the time it's ready. This is why A number of gas guzzlers were coming to market as the EPA got back to re tightening the noose on mpg standards
