Could this really be happening? https://finance.yahoo.com/news/white-house-tesla-expand-u-141440366.html

Why would you want to use these slow 400v 72-150kw chargers when you can use the EAs for free?

There are areas of the country where there are no operational CCS chargers, like Delaware for example. I would be estastic for even a 50KW charger in Rehoboth De.
Hopefully, as time goes on the idea of anyone charging anywhere may become the norm.

Because there are plenty of Tesla chargers and only a limited number of Electrify America ones?

the white house is not high on my list of credible sources, I will be more enthusised about this when tesla announces their plans to open up their US superchargers to other makes of EVs

At least in California there are more EA chargers than Tesla Superchargers. How are people dealing with the short SuperCharger cable? Taking up 3 spaces and park horiztonally?

Fair point

The area between San Antonio and South Padre Island is an EA wasteland. Not a single EA charging station. It would be great to have access to the Supercharger network there.

Maybe because the Tesla chargers are everywhere??

because they actually work? Half Moon Bay today - needed EA to work - 4 chargers - 4 broken chargers - apparently been that way for at least 10 calendar days…

had to use an EVGo charger.

free doesn't matter if it doesn't work.

EA's reliability is terrible - superchargers on the other hand are far far better.
