Looks like 120 miles is on the order of 3 days driving by the average American. Why should I lug around batteries supporting more than that?

Further, the I3 has no range anxiety due to the Range Extending onboard gas generator.

A 2018 Tesla Model 3 is running $40k+. Taint worth $15k more than the 2018 I3 at $25k. Not even close.
