Tesla Motors Club

Hello everyone.
We are considering purchasing our first electric car, a Tesla obviously; the car would be a daily driver for my wife.
I am a car enthusiast, know quiet a bit about car, can and often do more than basic maintenance on cars. I’m also a big techie. As such, am quiet familiar with Teslas. I’ve done a bit more updated research recently, brushing up on features, model comparisons, updates, etc.

What I would like to research and learn now is the stuff you can’t learn from the website or the blogs. I’m looking for realistic long-term feedback from actual owners as to any issues and/or problems they may have faced over the years; trying to get an honest understanding of the kind of maintenance and repairs the car would require, assuming it is kept 5-10 years. What breaks, what wears out, what needs special attention, what’s the real cost of ownership, etc. I like to do my research.

So the question is, are there any stickies or a good sub-forum on here to learn this info? Anywhere else online you’d recommend to do this research.

Thanks in advance.
