I set a goal about a decade ago to get an electric vehicle someday. At the time, short driving range was a deal-breaker, so I went with a hybrid. Now, with batteries improving and the variety of models continuing to expand, EV ownership seems within reach.
I can’t help wondering how I would handle the experience. Surely I would have a Level 2 charger installed in the garage, so I could power up at home. In a pinch, maybe I could charge at work.
In a real pinch, I suppose I could head to the nearby AAA office and use the DC fast charger there. But hmmm how practical would that be at night, when the parking lot is otherwise empty and there’s nothing to do but wait? I don’t think so.
