When I walked out of the airport in Amsterdam, I was astonished at
the number of Teslas waiting to
pick up passengers. The Tesla has gone over big as taxis in A-dam.
Besides the half dozen or so at
the airport, I saw another 8-10 on the highways during the nine days
I was there. In the past couple
years, I've seen only one on the roads around here.
Of course, Holland is not a huge country.
I looked and there are a few charging stations near me (~20 miles) but
they are all in high end hotels so I assume you have to be staying
there to use them
Ah, with your skills you could install a 50amp outlet in your garage
and charge it in no time. The
Cypress Bend RV resort would probably let you hook up to the 50amp outlet for $5.
Getting 50a in the garage is trivial. that is where the main panel is.
The "charging" I am worried about is the hundred grand Musk charges
for the car.
The issue with stations is what to do when you are not home although I
am not that far away very often in a car.
Campgrounds?
Around the SF Bay Area are lots of charging stations. Take Visa,
MasterCard, Amex.
Are they the 'Superchargers' that Tesla says are free?
Nope. Just electric car chargers lots of locations.
