How pissed will you be as the maximum amount you can charge you electric vehicle keeps dropping and dropping.

How much does it cost to replace the batteries?

Depends. If I spend less on the replacement batteries than i would say buying a new alternator or whatever may go wrong with a gas engine, i wouldn't be that pissed.

My parents have a prius (i know, i know) that my dad bought about 10-12 years ago. Its pretty much just kept on the farm now as a back up car. I remember the batteries and replacement being a topic of conversation when the car was bought, but there have never been any problems with the batteries at all. I would be interested in hearing what the average users experience is with teslas and other electric vehicles.
