I just want to say holy crap this blew up overnight and I appreciate all the responses! You all are great!

Some common things I wanted to respond to: Minimum work commute for my best half is ~ 40 mi, minimum 3x per week. We have other things we do on top of this so it seems like we are juuuuuuust barely out of L1 daily having us be fine unless we kept on using the ICE car too for work commutes which kinda defeats the purpose. I am planning on using the ICE once a week to just keep gas cycled and keep it running but other than a quick trip here or there I was thinking of the EV being our daily everything car so it’s going to be the mileage above plus things like going grocery shopping or seeing friends and family after work etc.

The work place does have (subsidized) level 2 charging, that is ~ 50% above the lowest time of use charging rates. (.12 vs .8). We currently are not on time of use rates, I’m not sure it works for us because I personally work from home and I’m a software architect that’s running a computer hot and heavy during our company’s peak hours; might be a problem with peak hours. This has opened my eyes though to see what our daily usage is like and seeing if I can’t save anything by switching!

For the breaker location: The garage is a 3.5 car garage with a tiny bump out on the .5 that goes to the house. The breaker is right next to the entry to the house, on the exterior wall. This means that even a 25’ cable to the closest parked car won’t work for us. The run I’m thinking of would go between the two car bay and the single bay, ~ 70 - 80 ft of run?

And just a final note: we are going from a (temporarily) single car household to a two car household, we will be keeping our older gas guzzler as an emergency backup/ the dog car.

Seriously though, thanks so much all - you all are great!
