A few years ago, after buying a Tesla (TSLA), we headed down from San Francisco to LA for a family summer road trip. Even though the car did not have enough range to get us to LA, the process of charging the car was seamless. We stopped in a tiny town called Kettleman City that had a Tesla Supercharger center with dozens of rapid chargers and a neat little waiting area with food and coffee that could be accessed with a Tesla card and a code the car provided.
By the time we were done eating lunch, the car was topped off and we were off to the races. This charging experience and others I had with Tesla over the last four years are a far cry from what I experienced a few days ago in a Ford Mach-E. We were in the market for a new car and were trying to decide between a regular ICE car, a hybrid like the new Toyota Crown that replaces the Avalon, a plug-in hybrid like the Lexus NX and an electric car like the Tesla Model Y, the Hyundai Ioniq 6, the Genesis GV60 and the Mustang Mach-E.
