On the other hand Tesla is great at the "E" part of EV, but not so great at the "V" part. Since the "V" part is the most important part for me, I'll get an EV when either Tesla figures out the "V" part of the others figure out the "E" part. So far I've not seen anything that suggests Tesla is getting better at "V" faster than others are getting better at "E" so I have no idea who is going to first make an EV that I'd actually. Fortunately I'm not under any serious time pressure. My current car is a 2006 Honda CR-V with around 83k miles on it and I've kept up reasonably well with maintenance. That was one of the good years for CR-V reliability, and with reasonable maintenance should be good for 250-300k miles.
