And you know, I want to talk about the recharge times further with you, but I'm not going to get the chance to do it if we're shutting down discussion.

Is that 40 minutes with the Tesla specific gear for charging?

Yes. Tesla has created a network of the so-called SuperChargers, which allow to charge with up to 120kW. So recharge times of 30-40 minutes for a leg of 200-300 miles are possible. Typically SuperChargers are placed on the main roads in less than 200 miles distance. You can find a nice overview of the network here: https://supercharge.info
