Update: My neighbor's electric car is making me consider one too.
I'm stuck on how to charge at home when I only have street parking.

How are you planning to handle charging if you can't plug in at home? I looked into this hard when I was thinking about switching. Your best bet is to scout all the public chargers within walking distance first. See if your city is putting in any street side posts near you, because more places are doing that now. I used the charger at my local store every week and just did my shopping while it powered up. It takes some getting used to, but it works if you stay on top of it.

You say it works if you stay on top of it, but from what I've seen, that plan falls apart fast. The chargers at my local grocery are often broken or in use, so I've been stranded with low battery more than once. Relying on public spots means planning your life around charging, and that gets old quick. Your mileage may vary, but for me, it turned into more stress than it was worth.
