I don't believe DaFace was taking a jab at your financial state.

What he is saying is that while yes, you are *technically* correct that it takes a lifetime to charge from a 120v BUT... if someone has enough dough to spend on an $80k car then they probably not only have the extra $700 it costs to install the 220 outlet and purchase the charger... they also probably live in a home that has wiring which can support 220v.

In my case, it would take 2.5 days to charge from flat to full on this EV I'm trying to buy on the 110 charger and that is not a workable solution for me so I'm forced into the 220. While I'm not made of money, I live on a farm and getting the appropriate 14-50 plug installed isn't a big hill to surmount for me and I needed one anyway.
