      I’m guessing Tesla owners can and do charge at home. I have a Leaf, and I’ve only used public chargers a few times. Under 100k miles cost of repairs shouldn’t be much of an issue.

      I think you forgot that the alternative is to support a different douche-ey billionaire and subscribe yourself to 5x more expensive climate killing big oil?

      I charge at home for $0.058/kWh. The company that provides it is also local and it does create local jobs.

      Do you even know how EV charging works? Do you go to the Apple Store or Android store to charge your phone?
