I'm not a tesla fan boy, but if you are craving more yoke time, i would say try buying a new tesla.

$73k starting price is just a bit outside my budget.

No, I suppose you aren't a fan boy. I'm a bit surprised you'd suggest buying one.
Battery powered anything, has a long way to go before it is really a viable mode of transportation. In real world use tesla cars have 40% of the range they claim, as proven by me in winter. In the summer holding it to the floor up a mountain pass put tesla into limp mode because it couldn't handle it. Their joke of a semi truck could not be more pathetic. So why would anyone expect an electric plane to be useful at all. I live a 3.5 hour drive away from Harbor Airs headquarters, and them just trying this lame stunt, has made them a laughing stalk in the area.

Until electrical energy can be stored as a high density, non degrading fuel, there will always be a need for fossil fueled vehicles. Glorified golf carts are fine for short trip inner city or suburban use, but you aren't traversing the Sahara with an EV.
 
I really like the new Lucid that comes out next year. At $70-150K though, still way outside my car budget. Guess I’ll wait for the $25K Tesla next year.
