You should consider doing a ride along with a Tesla owner, just to experience how ridiculously over-complicated the process is that you describe above. I promise I’m not a Tesla bigot, I’m glad to see they are finally getting some competition, which is good for us, the consumers. But the supercharger experience is something that Tesla has figured out, and no one can come even close to the seamless experience they have crafted.

You're right. I need to do that. My experience with Electrify America is worse than any other network I use. I keep hoping that Tesla will open its network to the rest of us so I can charge there instead!

Plug-and-Charge really needs to take off:

It would be great if there were one standard for all cars and all chargers so it always worked on this plug and play basis! Wow! Let's dare to dream!
