With the battery pack being the base on which the rest of the car is built on, is it even possible to replace the battery pack when it comes to the end of its useful life?
Tesla indicated in their FAQ that they cannot forecast cost of replacing battery because battery technology is changing but I see no information on how easy or hard or if it is even possible to replace the battery pack.
The forum is large and it is difficult to search if someone may have already posted this question so if this is redundant, apologies up front.
I was told that you have to prepay with in 30 days of taking delivery. Sounds like an 8 year escrow plan to me.
I understand that you can pay the $12K now or take your chances on the battery price 8 years from now. So, if you can invest your money and get 12% on it (which is a conservative view on what I get) the $12K today will grow to $30K in eight years. And, if I keep my existing battery for two years beyond the warranty, that $30K is over $37K For my money, I'd rather see what $37K can buy in ten years. A flux capacitor, perhaps?
