After 25 years, you can sell one for $300,000 as a rare collector's classic.
And after 10years, parts availability dries up and parts costs skyrocket.

After "25 YEARS" or about 375,000 miles, one would have had to replace the Tesla batteries
two times. Maybe one time, but with greatly reduced range from attrition.
a Tesla battery is good for about 300,000 miles,
however, it degrades capacity at 10% every 100,000 miles
A Tesla battery replacement is $20,000

"The annual cost of maintenance for electric vehicles, specifically the Tesla Model 3, is $190 a year. For a gas powered car, the average annual cost of maintenance, specifically the country’s most popular model, the Toyota Rav 4, is $964.60. This is based on an annual mileage of over
13,000 miles. The maintenance cost for the average electric vehicle is
$321 cheaper each year than a gas alternative."
A lot of cars will go 300k+ but I don't know if the RAV4 is one of them. There could be an engine replacement involved at 250k or so.
I agree a lot could happen in twenty-five years: punitive taxes on ICE; Japan/Euro style disincentives for old cars; greater utilization
public transport due to increased urban density; etc.

Thanks for proving my point.Thanks for restoring Art's snip. The additional running cost of the
'average EV' is $1669/yr over the 'average ICE' when factoring in
purchase cost. I wonder where I can get an 'average car,' EV or ICE.
If I'm choosing between an EV and an ICE vehicle of the same price, like
the Tesla 3/BMW 3 pair shown above, running cost w/o purchase is the
correct comparison: $3,679/yr for an EV; $4336/yr for a gas vehicle.
Is >$2k/yr really "far more expensive" in the context of the EV average price of $64k? For cars only (no SUVs), more like $76k.

Not a fan of him either
My bandmate coerced me into doing Lust For Life, and singing it too.
I despised it.

Still trying to get your point.
Maybe its that you think those are four great basslines that don't
get you dancing.
Well, none of them are all that goof basslines, mostly one note
continual thumping. Though Larry Graham and Dusty Hill do a great job
of thumping. Those two songs are danceable. Abacab is rhythmically
boring, though Rutherford has done some good other stuff. Magic Bus
does nothing for me. some consider Entwhistle a God. Not me.
Another really good bass player was the other Motown dude, Bob
Babbitt
Every Kind of People, Robert Palmer. video version Babbitt https://youtu.be/R686uRAzwIk

Another really good one.
The first song I learned was Harvey Brooks
I learned to play bass by repetitively playing one of his songs.
Albert's Shuffle, Mike Bloomfield on Super Sessions
My teacher was a big fan.
Brooks played with Miles Davis.
Bitches Brew album and others.

"Hold your group together / With Rotosound Strings."
https://www.sweetwater.com/insync/flatwound-vs-roundwound-bass-strings
"Whether you play bass with your fingers or with a pick, roundwound bass strings sound brighter than flatwound bass strings. Roundwounds have a
more even balance between low-end thump, midrange character, and
high-end detail, relative to flatwounds. Flatwound strings have reduced
high end, giving them more emphasis on mids and lows. Bassists playing
rock, punk, and pop styles often choose roundwounds for their enhanced presence in a busy mix. For reggae, R&B, and jazz, the smoother, warmer sound of flatwounds is often more appropriate."

One chord with one base note, yes, BUT, there is a whole scale to work with.

One chord with one base note, yes, BUT, there is a whole scale to work with.Technically, it's missing the leading tone, ti, and chromatics.
Seems conceived from the bottom up, so a Jamerson bass line would blunt
the impact.
Just to show one chord works isn't only for funk:
Terry Riley "In C"

More tones than Sly uses, but one appreciates Sly's brevity.

It was reminiscent of an Impressionistic rendition of a root canal.

I also have a MarkBass for carrying purposes.
Classical is a great start, although there's not as much solo rep as for violin or piano. If you've done jazz, too, it can make that garage band stuff seem musically uninteresting (I recall John Goodman mocking the
folk singer's "cowboy chords" versus jazz using all 12 note in Inside
Llewyn Davis).
It's hard to imagine rock players starting on upright, but Jack Bruce
comes to mind.
Oh, yeah, another vocal fretless that's been in my ear forever:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyhznTkgAaw
Armatrading with Tony Levin. Bad YouTube sound.
I also have a MarkBass for carrying purposes.Yes, that kind of thing. It's odd to heft a combo amp near twenty pounds.
I did a theater gig with a bass player who had an Ampeg fliptop. Even
the combo size was a handful weight-wise.

My music started much earlier. Clarinet. at 8 years old
So I am grounded in classical
And it actually greatly influenced my bass playing,
I use chromatics and scales a lot.
