2019 Kona EV. Got ours used 2 years ago with 36k miles for 26500. Has 258 miles of range, which is fine for road trips but when we're home it's NEVER an issue. We sold our second car, had a nema 14-50 electrical outlet installed behind our house (think washer/dryer outlet) and got a level 2 charger for like $600. It charges fully overnight from 0 to 100% - which we only need to do maybe twice a week at most. Charging at home costs us like $9 a month.
Once in a blue moon we'll forget to charge when it's close to empty - in that case we pay for fast charging at Carytown Publix, by the Panera at Libbie, or the Wawa at Chamberlayne in Northside. Usually takes 30-40 minutes to get to 80% and costs like $10. But again, extremely rare that's even necessary.

We got one a couple of years ago and it's been a joy! Happy to answer any questions.

Oof duh. I misread the title and thought this was Monument and AA Boulevard.

I reported it to Dominion! They said they'd send someone out.

Jen would mop the floor with Levar, but I believe she intends to run for Governor again. I could be wrong though.

D+30 seat. Not competitive. Only question is which Democrat will replace him after the special election.

Get an EV Juicebox or equivalent and ask any competent electrician to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet (same as washer dryer). We had one installed after running a line to the parking space in our alley. Took 5 minutes to set up the Juicebox after the outlet was done. Easy peasy. You're going to love it.
