I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I'm wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

I own 2 Teslas and an electric lawnmower since 2018 and I live in the Arctic Chicago area. No regrets besides Elon turning out to be a shitlord.

I am exactly you except I live in the south.

Enjoy the nice weather then, unless you're so far south your life is at risk... In which case please don't store your lithium batteries where you store your standing water.

I’m in New England and have had a Tesla for 3 years now. Two years ago we drove it down to South Carolina & back. No issues at all thanks to their supercharger network.
