I went the opposite route and instead of selling my 3 I bought a Y as well. Despite elon and all the negative press, it's hard to beat an electric car.
The only trouble is that the super charger network pretty much makes the choice of EV for you if you don't want any gas cars in the garage.
Supercharger is exactly why I didn't own a different brand. I love to drive and often put plenty of miles on it, so not having that reliability wasn't an option for me.
As for the Elon business, I ignore that best I can.
Won’t be that long till you can get an adapter for existing CCS cars, so eventually vehicles like mine will be able to use almost any charging station there is. In the meantime, I’ve almost entirely charged at home and had no failures yet with public chargers.
