> Eh, Super Charging is 15-25 minutes. Gas fill up is about 3-5 minutes minimum and definitely more expensive. So I'd say they're closer to even, but w/e.

In my experience, the biggest issue is location. If I had superchargers at every lunch/dinner stop, the difference would almost be unnoticeable.

Yea definitely. They aren't always at the best spot. Sometimes we grab food on the way to the charger and then just eat it there. The best ones IMO are at grocery stores or nicer gas stations/travel centers.

Yeah, I've gone out of my way to go to the ones at Wawa sometimes. The worst are the hotel ones, IMO.

Yea definitely. Though I imagine quite nice if you’re staying at the hotel!
