This is similar to how I usually charge. About four times a week I charge for free with 2 hour free parking parking. You will be fine charging that way even if you skip a day or two. I drive about the same most days. In winter the Tesla Model Y's climate control heat, including preconditioning before driving, will use as much of the battery charge as your 10 mile per day driving. Set the maximum charging level anywhere between 50% and 90% and the battery will be fine.
He could be referring the fact that the car will charge a lot faster at a lower state of charge. If you only drive 5 or 10 miles a day should not really be a big deal either way.
That would only be true when using a Supercharger. For Level 2 (240V) charging there is no noticeable taper in the charging rate until the state of charge is greater than ~95%.
Fair. But I believe this was a recommendation since I will not have the ability to charge at home for the foreseeable future.
Maybe the SA was under the impression that I will explicitly supercharge. Not sure. Either way, I think I might charge 2 hours a day for free until I get home charging.
Most SA's don't know $hit... you are fine charging every day. Personally I don't charge above 90% unless I am doing a road trip, and I set the charge to finish just before I start driving so the car doesn't sit at high state of charge for any length of time.
