I guess I was venting that the fast-charging claims for some of these newer EV`s feel like false advertising, if only because in my head I thought I would be able to get those charge rates in my garage. On the other hand, I can`t gas up my car in my garage, either. One of the attractive things about an EV (to me, anyway) was the thought of never having to go to a gas station again, which may still be true, without the fast charging, just would have to leave it overnight to charge.
