Any problems with getting the charging station installed in your garages? Basic questions, I know....just seeking info. Thanks.
It... depends. Depends on
temperature
speed driven
rate of acceleration
And, of course, model year (size of battery)

My 2017 (which has the middle size battery) can get between 85 (driven like a complete ass) and 180 miles depending on the above. Installing a 240v battery charger at home is no problem, and will charge it completely from 0% in less than 5 hours. The standard wall charger takes a LOT longer.
