Ever since 2 Nov, 2012 when I received my Pearl White Sig Perf, it's been my commute (ok, everything) vehicle. Key things I've noticed:
1. I didn't know gas prices went up to $4.00 a gallon in San Jose until I saw it on the news!
2. It's amazing how quickly NOT thinking of getting gas on the way home/to work, happens! I charge at night and can't "commute" enough during the day to worry about range anxiety.
3. It's a REAL Car! Roomy, spacious trunk/frunk, taking 4 people to lunch or wherever is absolutely FUN. I also own a Prius but there is more trunk space, people space and FUN space in the MS! Yes, I know, it costs 4x of my Prius.
4. "Tesla time" is a valid excuse for me to be late to wherever I was supposed to have been!
5. It's a GORGEOUS Car, period! Everybody says that...the fact that it is also a superb BEV becomes part of the conversation afterward.
6. Showing off features like the iPhone app (or Android if you must) is just WAY COOL! Plenty of charge - check; Cabin at 75 degrees - check; Honk at my co-workers - ;-)
Essentially, commuting is no longer about just getting back and forth, it's having the Tesla Grin while commuting that's the kick!
cheers
