rotate tires, cabin air filter, check the coolant level. 150k miles there's drive unit fluid to replace. at 200k (for mine) change the battery coolant.
There's still tires, brakes and brake fluid too, but brakes wear very very slowly.

People tell me I'm condescending. That means I talk down to people.

I'm not sure that Best Buy actually sells a good one... The true best way IMO is to buy a router and buy an AP. Router/AP combos are like printer/scanner/fax combos, they don't do any of the multiple functions very well.

Lithium mining is bad locally in a few areas. Burning oil is bad globally.

Electricity prices need to be posted and plain like a gas station. There's a potential to really rip people off here. You simply plug in and charge and later find out it was $5/kwh

That just depends if it's winter or summer though. If it's summer the waste heat is just waste heat.

Even "running off coal", that centralized generation of electric power is more efficient. And the coal plants can scrub emissions before they go into the air. Coal is still a mess though.

Battery degradation is being found to be much less than people thought. On the order of 10 percent or less at 100k miles, with most of it happening in the first couple years.

Just curious, if 60% works for you it's all good. Lithium batteries are "happiest" at 50 percent for storage, and there's always slack in the battery indicator.

This is fairly standard practice. ABC: always be charging. That way the vehicle isn't drawing from battery power to keep the battery itself safe on those really cold nights. Not sure why you went for 60% limit though.

that makes the wages even MORE exploitative.

While I don't like the fact that we rely on exploitative ultra cheap immigrant labor, just cutting it out completely and abruptly will cause chaos.
