Tesla Model X Review | Model X Tesla Review
As we all know by now, Elon Musk and Tesla Motors have built an incredible name for themselves. In the average persons mind, a Tesla EV was built only for the rich and affluent. Those who like to buy lavish vehicles and pretend they are only doing it to save on gas and to "help the environment", or to "make a difference" in the world. When we all know darn well "saving" a few bucks in gas changes nothing in their life. - It's because these cars a freaking cool! And these guys have money, so.... they want to show it off.
As a society, we are not as dumb as these marketing and rich folks think we are. We know this is the truth in most all these cases and why people really want to own a Tesla (Status Symbol). However, that is all about to change significantly! Elon Musks goal and vision is coming to fruition. He originally created the Tesla Roadster as a proof of concept - to make it "cool" for the rich to own. In doing this he knew what he was lining up for the future, and it's pure genius! We are not just talking about the news of the amazingly awesome Tesla Model X coming in 2016 or the sweet little Model 3 coming in 2017, which by the way only carries a $35,000 price tag.
But also because these rich and affluent characters can't stand driving around in a vehicle that is more than a couple years old, and hey with the great looking Model S and Model X out there, can you really blame them? they HAVE TO GET AN UPGRADE!!! And when they do upgrade, we average folk can get a great deal by purchasing these incredible cars at a huge discount, like THIS ONE that sold on Ebay for only $55,000.00 - I have seen both Roadsters and Model S Tesla's for sale under $60,000.00

Tesla Model X Review
$55,000 still a lot? - Not really.
The Average price of a New Quality vehicle in America is around $35,000.00 - A 6 year loan @ 5% interest would have you at a payment of $563/mo - Now lets say you spend $350/mo on gas to fill up you car and take you places. Your total Monthly cost would be $913, for just your car payment and gas expenses.
That $55,000 price tag on those same loan terms would only be $885/mo.
More affordable than you thought huh? - Now the more you currently spend in gas, the more something like this would benefit you financially in the long run.
Now what about maintenance? - A lot more affordable than you may think, especially when you realize you don't have to pay for those expensive luxury car oil changes any more - It also helps that Tesla actually stands behind it's high end luxury product.
You want to know something else? - Elon Musk keeps sweetening the deal when it comes to his older model cars like the Tesla Roadster - How? - He keeps making larger and longer lasting batteries for these cars, so you can drive even further on a single charge than the original owner did.
And let's face it, when a rich guy drops over $100,000.00 on a car, he is going to take immaculate care of it.
The market for these Used Tesla's are only going to get better - Tesla is even willing to buy back the old models they originally sold, and for a fairly decent price tag I might add.
And Finally when the Model 3 is released in 2017, it will be a whole new ball game in the EV world.
Yes the Tesla Model X will for now still be reserved for the rich and famous, but give it a few years and we will be able to do the same with these bad boys!
