Most of the 46% don't have a level 2 charger at home.

If true, that would make a huge difference. Charging at home for pennies/KwH is

Is it close to 24 hours to charge on level 1?

Oct 25, 5:27pm

Depending on the vehicle, could be longer. Mine charges at 1 mile/hour on a 110V

I just have a plug in hybrid, but as a home builder I installed 2 level two

Didn’t he say 1 mile per hour?

They ran a segment on the report on KSL.

That's where the stat is misleading. I can see most people saying "Yeah, gas" if they only have one car. Most people

Agreed. I wouldn't do just EV yet. I also have a gas family car.

Yes, gassing up is certainly much easier than plugging in every night as your

You need a gas car. But if you have a second car, people love their EVs.

They seem like a good fit for commuters with a garage. Not a great fit for some

My mother has little usage, never road trips more than 250 miles.

Model Y was cheaper than a Honda CRV for me.

Oct 25, 6:15pm

We love our EV. But we're also glad to have an ICE. Having one of each is ideal.

Get a plug in hybrid and you get both

Bought EV recently, I hate driving our ICE now.

Used EV market is saturated, good time to buy used

I don't believe that.

I'll never go back to gas if I can help it.
