    This is only accurate if you are being as stubborn as possible

    I don’t even know what that’s supposed to mean.

    With the right adapter, literally any EV can charge at a Tesla station.

    Currently there are only a handful of stations that support this and most of them are located on the opposite side of the country from me.

      I don’t even know what that’s supposed to mean.

      The only way it makes sense is if you’re intentionally constraining things to the most unfavorable. You’re ignoring charge stations, ignoring that EV adapters exist, ignoring portable chargers.

      Currently there are only a handful of stations that support this and most of them are located on the opposite side of the country from me.

      The adapters I’m talking about are something you just throw in your trunk and pull out when you need them. They are “universal” and don’t require support on the charger side. You just buy one for your specific car.

        There’s no such thing.

            What you’re hallucinating is that those do anything today:

            EXCLUSIVE COMPATIBILITY - This Tesla Supercharger to CCS Adapter is designed exclusively for EVs brands that have joined the North American Charging Standard (NACS), enabling non-Tesla EVs, including GM, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Rivian, Mercedes, Nissan, Polestar, Toyota, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo, and Fisker to access high-speed Superchargers.

            They’re not compatible with anything today. They will be, in the future.
