CurbsideCharlie

The part of this program that actually matters to me isn't the interstate corridor stations everyone in this thread is discussing — it's whether any NEVI money ever lands on urban curbside or destination charging, because that's the gap that affects my daily charging, not my road trips. I don't have a garage. I have a parking spot on a residential street and a public DCFC I drive to twice a week like it's a gas station, because it functionally is one for me. Corridor buildout is great if you're driving Austin to Denver. It does nothing for the daily-urban-no-driveway problem, which is a much bigger share of EV owners than infrastructure planning seems to assume. Would love to see a state-by-state breakdown of how much NEVI funding specifically targets urban/multi-unit charging versus highway corridors, because I'd bet the number is smaller than most people reading this thread would guess.

Must be nice having a garage to put either of these in.

Reading posts like this from the outside, as someone who rents and doesn't get to touch the panel at all. No say in the circuit, no say in the range, no say in any of it. The whole DIY electrification conversation on this forum assumes a homeowner with a panel to open. Would genuinely read a thread about what's actually possible for renters, even if the honest answer is "very little."
