Perfect for someone who has a love for Tesla and willing to put in the time to get it back to being one of the best vehicles on the streets. Brakes need to be replaced soon. Battery pack recently went on it so its currently inoperable.

Does spending $15,000 - $22,000 on a part for a 10 year old car sound like a good idea?

Ask some of these people: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/ - search in the top right "HV Battery Replace" and click "Titles Only"

How long till a new Drive Unit is needed ($10,000+) or a new MCU?

In 2024, around 2/3rds of the electric cars in the US actually are fueled by natural gas or coal.

1. HA! No aftermarket clones parts. Need new OEM all the time.

2. 147,800 miles... How much is a 2014 Toyota Camry with same mileage?

3. Correct me if I'm wrong here

I believe, in 2014, a new Tesla cost a good deal more than a Camry.
