Hey all, just wanted to echo the sentiments of OP here w.r.t Tesla vs EA. I was also travelling back home from Thanksgiving with family on the I5. However, I was in a Tesla so I fortunately only had to watch how the 5 or so EA chargers (one non-functioning) got completely swamped by 20 or so cars at Harris Ranch. Meanwhile, the 30 or so Tesla Superchargers had no line (though it was quite packed) and people moved in and out with relative ease.
Look, I’ve hated Elon musk since well before 2020 so let me say it brings me no pleasure to say just how much better the Tesla charging experience is. Funnily enough, I experienced my first Tesla super-charger failure this holiday trip. However, it was super easy to switch the the dozen or so empty chargers next to me on the way down from the Bay (Casa de Fruita).
I’ve already told my parents that they definitely shouldn’t consider any EV besides Tesla here in the US. It’s just not worth the risk being stranded somewhere on the highway
