Consider the list of maintenance items for a Model S, the Model 3 would hardly be any different. So it's reasonable to compare to a $35K car. And saying I should compare it to a maintenance hog of a car like a BMW isn't reasonable. Maybe it's not reasonable to compare it to my own sample size of 1 either, which is my Audi A4, which had free maintenance for 3 years, and the most expensive it got after that was one year for 60K mile service getting a new timing belt. On average it's been less than $500 a year to maintain.
