Hi,
I work form home and live in a courtyard where my car is 70 feet from my house and unable to run electric to the car. We don't plan on moving for a long time.
I have a deposit on a model 3 , but have not pulled the trigger.
The closest public charger is in an indoor parking garage .5 mikes away that will charge $11 to park form 6 AM to 6 PM and $5.00 for electricity.
Am I crazy for buying a model 3 where I need to drop it off and pick it up every 7-14 days ? We don't drive very many miles since we live in the city. Some trips to the burbs to visit family and some stores and a few 500 (round trip) visits to upstate NY a few times a year?
Went on a test drive the other day and loved it.
There are 1 -2 other parking garages with chargers about .8 to 1 mile away -- Haven't checked them out yet.
1. Does anyone have a model 3 in a similar situation ? No charger at work or at home, How is it working out?
2. Can I get a full charge in 10-11 hours?
3. If I leave my car without driving it for like 5-7 days has much will drain from the battery ? the sales person told me it will not drain at all.
4. Anything else that would be helpful to make this decision?
5. Anyone have any other charging options for me around 2nd and Spruce Sts.
Thanks
