I don't have my Model 3 yet but I've been planning where and how I'd charge my car as I don't own a house, I own an apartment in Brooklyn, NY.
I noticed the nearest destination charger (on the PLugShare app) in on the 'Blink' network, but charges $0.49/kwh if you have a blink card, or $0.59 if you don't.
Some very quick math... I'm looking at about $30 for a full charge and let's say 270mi of range in normal conditions.
My Golf GTI (current car) would cost less than that to get the same range using premium gas.
Is this common? Do 3rd party chargers often charge much more than superchargers? Tesla (rather astonishingly) doesn't have a supercharger in Brooklyn (which as a stand alone city is the USA's 5th largest).
