The increased cost is swamped by lower gas costs. Gas is two to three times the price plus takes time out of the week to fill up.

- cortesoft 6y agoRight... but landlords don’t pay those gas costs. I am not arguing that an electric car is not cheaper to drive than a gas car (I have one myself)....I am just saying it isn’t free or near free, so expecting someone else to pay for your electricity to charge your car is unreasonable.
- Robotbeat 6y agoHow much is the typical heat bill? It's on the same order.
- cortesoft 6y agoEvery apartment I have lived in I paid my own gas and electric bill, which was metered just for my own apartment.
- Robotbeat 6y agoI think breaking out metered heat is uncommon for small apartment unit in large apartment buildings. Or at least it was when I rented. And if electricity is already metered, then this shouldn’t be a problem...
- cortesoft 6y agoThe original comment talked about apartment buildings not letting people charge their cars in the garage. Those outlets are usually not tied to the specific apartment building, so it isn’t going to be charged to their account.
