I bought my almost-new Subaru Forester for $17000. There is no amount of maintenance and fuel savings that would make up the ~$18k difference to buy a _used_ Tesla. I could have gone even cheaper but I wanted premium features like AWD and lots of space for my business.

People who talk about TCO for a car are already setting the bar crazy high to justify buying an expensive car that they don't really need.
