Seriously, though, as ZBB points out above, for the vast majority of circumstances the Model S already has more than enough range, and charging from home is easy enough. Cost is a barrier, but psychology is a bigger one.
I was starting to convince myself of this until I saw $40k for a battery pack. Holy shit, that looms as a large hurdle to vehicle resale total cost of ownership, etc. Makes the Porsche IMS bearing thing seem trivial.
