I'm in the process of buying a mach E, which would be the my first ever EV. I live in a multi unit apartment building/condo, and the HOA board is very slow/resistant to any major changes, including installing a 240v line (to allow me to set up a level 2 charging station in my assigned spot).
I don't have much hope this will get resolved anytime soon, so I've resigned myself to charging only at third party stations around the area. Is this a good idea? I don't do a ton of driving (maybe 100 miles a week at most). There is a free(?) Volta Charging station at the Whole Foods a block away from me that I was hoping to leverage weekly while I shopped for groceries. Other than that, I was hoping to top off at other local spots (malls, etc) every other week or as needed.
Is this realistic, or am I setting myself up for failure by not having access to a charger at home?
