  What car do you drive where charging stops are that long? My average Supercharging session in my base Model 3 is 9 minutes. That’s barely enough time to go pee and walk my dog.

  I strongly prefer road-tripping my EV because the natural breaks mean I arrive more refreshed and less sore.

  They are genuinely more reliable. Having more stalls does help for when there’s issues, but they have 99.96% uptime across the entire network. I’ve had to move stalls once in my almost 3 years of ownership.

  They also have their own service people that travel to chargers to fix them, where Electrify America hires local electrical contractors that may not be experts on DC Fast Charging equipment.

  You’re not unlucky, in the U.S. any charger that isn’t made by Tesla is unreliable. It’s been getting worse over time, and the only real hope is that every manufacturer is switching to Tesla’s charge port (now called NACS) and getting access to their Superchargers.

  I had a non-Tesla EV and eventually got a Tesla because I need to road trip regularly and can’t handle chargers being down.

  Because they’re phenomenal vehicles? And if you live in the US they have the only charging network you can actually rely on.

  I’m driving 600 miles today in mine. No problem.

  I’ve been playing in private beta with the Lutris script just fine. Particle effects are a little visually glitchy but everything is running great, I’ve even streamed it on twitch some.
