I don't feel embarrassed but when I bought mine it was far and away the best value. Now there's many more options and teslas are priced way higher than them. I've tried out a couple of them and my next car probably won't be a Tesla due to price more than anything.

I'm curious what you've looked at? In New England and as a snowboarder, AWD and high range are both requirements and I'm not seeing anything cheaper than the Model 3 unfortunately.

I am in Canada and at the time I hadn't skied before so that wasn't a concern. But there was the leaf and the bolt really were the only 2 other available cars. And the base model 3 was only about 3-5k more than the others and it had a better range and the supercharger network so for me it made no sense to get anything besides the model 3
