Trying to figure out leasing/buying an EV with a place that has lvl 2 charging. Heard anecdotes that are mostly negative. How's your experience been?

I'm never going back. It's so convenient and inexpensive. I've Decided to add solar to my house and now my fuel is basically going to be free. But even without it, 50 amp lvl 2 works great. I'm also in Oregon doing off peak charging

Here's two cars with the PGE subsidized charge point charger in my garage. Bring honest, I don't always charge overnight. Sometimes I forget to plug it in. infographic
