    I'm right on the Perth Amboy-Woodbridge border. Even the malls around here don't offer EV charging. I have a friend that lives in Bayville.

    I live in Los Angeles area... Surprisingly there are hardly any charging stations around my house. The closest one is about 1.5 miles away, next to CVS but it's $2 per hour to charge. The others are at least 5 miles away, which not worth driving there and back.

    Wouldn't it be nice if every Starbucks has 5 charging stations right in front? :)

    That's a shame - did a quick search and looks like 90% of NJ free chargers are at car dealers or universities.
    Rutgers has a pile of them and at multiple lots. Think I'd have bought a Volt if I lived there
    Start lobbying the Gov...

    btw called around today now that our MA tax break is in effect - 31k for a base Volt = 21k net of tax back
