The mid-range (260 miles) Model 3 is indeed available, but it is $45,000.
They count on the $7,500 federal tax break and state incentives to make it

When we travel it is usually by motorhome. I've thought about towing the EV
on a trailer that is covered with solar panels. A recharge while boon
docking would be no proble
ALL EV's are predominantly charged while parked. Solar panels on EV's are
