So, again maybe this is just because of where I live and the power rates I have available to me, but my overnight rates are $0.04/kWh. And my power company paid the for most of my lvl 2 charger. I spend $20 or less per month keeping the car charged at home. I had one of those "free" charging packages (although much smaller and less generous than some), and even with it I would still charge at home purely for the convenience of not having to go somewhere.
I get that some people are renters or for some other reason have a logistical difficulty with charging at home, but for anyone who isn't in that camp, I just can't imagine not charging at home. It is so nice to never have to think about stopping somewhere in normal/daily driving. It's honestly one of the biggest advantages (for me) of having an EV. The complete elimination during normal use of any thought or consideration about fuel other than developing the habit of plugging it in when I get home.
