I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted. I've read so many horror stories about bad experiences with non-Tesla fast charging.

One of the YouTubers I follow (Out of Spec Motoring) frequently takes road trips in non-Tesla EVs and vlogs about them. As a Tesla owner, I frequently watch his vlogs and feel a huge amount of schadenfreude. His trips are much more "interesting" than my own experiences road tripping using the Tesla network. He frequently encounters slow charge rates, failed chargers, and even entire stations being offline. In fact, he talks about how Electrify America shut down its entire network in the I95 corridor for upgrades, leaving non-Teslas stranded.

I've got about 36K on my Model X, about 50% of which came from road trips on the east coast. I've encountered 2 failed chargers, and had to wait to charge once.

Agree. I've driven nissan leaf for the last 5 years and just added tesla y.

Non-tesla chargers in my city are blocked by careless ICE drivers about 20-25% of the time, and the rates some of them charge are more expensive than gasoline.

the Y on the other hand, its like impossible to run out of juice, and not even a problem i have to think about unless i really want to. For non-tesla drivers: it navigates you where to go for charging when you need it, optimizing your route for the fastest charging experience.
