A Model 3 gets about 5 mph charge on a 110 outlet.  That&amp;#x27;s at least 60 miles over night and 120 miles in 24 hours. You can always supercharge if you need it.</text><parent_chain><item><author>thehappypm</author><text>This stopped me from buying a Tesla with my most recent car purchase. I live in a 100 year old apartment in Boston that has 0 parking spots for over 100 units. My wife and I share a car, mostly for weekend adventuring, so we rent a spot in a dude&amp;#x27;s backyard down the block from us. It works well for us, much more convenient than the rat race of street parking. But it was hard to imagine that life with a Tesla. I could probably negotiate that I could plug it into an outlet connected to the guy&amp;#x27;s house, but I&amp;#x27;d only get a slow trickle charge, and it&amp;#x27;s an odd request he could easily reject. I could rent in a garage with chargers, but there are none near my apartment, and it would also be much more expensive. The thought of only being able to charge at Superchargers was a big turnoff.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Where will ‘garage orphans’ charge electric cars?</title><url>https://www.theglobeandmail.com/drive/mobility/article-where-will-garage-orphans-charge-electric-cars-if-they-have-to-park/</url></story>

That&amp;#x27;s about a fifth of the housing stock in the UK I believe. Obviously, almost none of these houses have garages.&lt;p&gt;I wonder if local governments could install plugs under little hatches like they use for stop cocks all the way down residential roads.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;stock.adobe.com&amp;#x2F;be_en&amp;#x2F;images&amp;#x2F;blue-painted-water-stopcock-valve-cover-found-in-the-pavement-on-the-street&amp;#x2F;122551084&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;stock.adobe.com&amp;#x2F;be_en&amp;#x2F;images&amp;#x2F;blue-painted-water-stop...&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>thehappypm</author><text>This stopped me from buying a Tesla with my most recent car purchase.
