Huh. I'm also a little surprised that Jake didn't pick any Finnish (nay German) cars.
I don't have three kids, but I agree with PL and would take a Tesla any day of the week, for me, wife, and two kids. Not at that price point though. Having said that, I'm curious about the upcoming model 3 or whatever it will be called - the proposed Tesla sedan projected to start at around $35,000. Also, I'm sure this article will result in a lot of tighty-whitey bunching, but I got a kick out of it. 'Till then, I'll stick with my small-engined X3.:

Maybe Jake will appreciate it. I mean the author is Scandinavian, right? That's close to being Finnish... isn't it?
