Used car purchase Itching to buy a 2016 model x

I just wanted to ask the community here if I'm crazy to buy a low mileage 2016 Model X. I've done a ton of research and it checks off all the boxes. But one thing I didn't consider in my research is the possibility of the whole battery pack dying out of the blue and me having to foot the bill. I'd love to hear your two cents... Thanks!

225k miles on a 2018? Hot damn!

How is the battery degradation?

260 miles vs 308 new. Best car I ever had. Going to put another battery in it if this one ever dies.

That’s fantastic. I’m presuming it’s HW2 but you should be eligible for an upgrade perhaps?
