Just running some numbers on what I expect to spend on this car over 10 years that I'm planning on keeping it.
$90,720 Purchase price
$03,628 4% sales tax
-$7,500 Federal Tax Credit
-$6,000 Colorado Tax Credit
$03,800 8 years of Tesla Service
$04,000 4 year ESA Extended warranty
$??,??? Deductible charges during years 5-8
$07,212 10 years of Colorado Ownership Tax*
$00,500 10 years of $50/yr EV tax
$06,428 Estimated electricity cost for 150,000 miles. (0.15/kWh for me currently, I guesstimated 3 miles/kWh over the ten years, probably pessimistic but I wanted a worst-case scenario)
-------------------
$102,788 over ten years, plus deductible ESA warranty charges. That's assuming you buy the ESA and 8 years of service.
* Colorado Ownership Tax is 2.1% the first year, 1.5% the second year, 1.2% the third year, 0.9% the fourth year, and 0.45% years 5-9. Totaling 7.95%
