That helps a bit, but better solution is more "urban chargers" in locations where people Supercharge instead of home or work charging.
There are still some notable gaps in the Supercharger network in North America which need to be filled, but that's getting less and less.
But Tesla does need more Urban chargers in CA and more V2 and V3 chargers on heavily traveled routes.
You're making assertions. Do you have links to supporting data?Most are charging all the way up or near max SOC.
We all did it when we were SC virgins.
You mean like the Express or Self-Checkout lines at Sam's Club or supermarkets nowadays? Good idea!As a potential solution for these types of situations, I would love to have a couple of select supercharger stalls limited to 15 minutes. That could result in a rapid turnover at just these stalls for people who just need to add 30-50 miles.
You're making assertions. Do you have links to supporting data?
Yes, they were. Your anecdote does not support your assertions, even if it was statistically significant, which it's not.It's not assertions. I have traveled to superchargers (not near my house). One example - I plugged in when I was at 20% charge and a Model 3 was just to my left already charging. When I was finished - the guy to my left was still parked reading. I normally charge to 80% or 90% if there are open stalls available.
Which superchargers do you usually have to wait at?
Yes, they were. Your anecdote does not support your assertions, even if it was statistically significant, which it's not.
Most are charging all the way up or near max SOC. Charge quickly and move along, people are waiting! should be a large sign at all SC.

abuse from locals charging >80% for the free juice.
It's opinions and assumptions about human nature, not scientific. Exactly my point.This is not so scientific, its normal human nature
is plauge considered derogatory? Plague is, but I don't know what a plauge is.plauge? The problem is not the amount of Model 3 or Y when it comes out. The problem is Tesla needs to keep up with the amount of vehicles sold in certain areas. So please don't use derogatory terms against other Tesla owners.
they tried that and then everyone cried and the media picked it up. They don't want people thinking charging is expensive or it kills adoption.OR will they just raise S.C. pricing to make it less desirerable to charge away from home and push more to install and use home charging?
Luckily in Ontario Canada this issue hasn’t been a major concern for me , unlike some of the US it seems.
I only ever stop at a SC’s when I’m >200km (120miles) away from home and can’t make it back on a round trip. Most times there is no one or max three stalls in use.
Tesla's policy says: "We are continually expanding our global network of Supercharger stations to enable personal long distance travel and to provide a charging solution for those without immediate access to home or workplace charging"
Here - let's put this "anecdote" or "assertions" aside and look at a snap-shop of today's charging at 11:40 AM PST from those that signed up to TeslaFi and are allowing their data to show here:
(How many do you see charging above 90% out of the total in the United States?)

... I specifically plugged in next to them to pair and get the lower initial 20-30 KW. I walked back to a restaurant, knowing that my car would charge slow enough to enjoy my meal.
