I'm young and looking to buy my first car - EV right out the gate. My parents own Teslas and have the garage outfitted with, from their quote, "two Nema 14-50 outlets, which is higher than a washer/drier outlet." A Tesla's slightly out of my price range for my hard earned First Car Fund, and a used 2011/2012 Leaf seems like the way to go.
So here's my question. I want to charge a 2011 Leaf in the outlets in my garage, (Nema 14-50). Do I need an adapter? A certain charge cord? What kind? Does the car generally come with one, which would be something I could check on when I buy a used Leaf? Or do I need to buy something separately? If someone could provide some valuable insight, I would greatly appreciate it.
