You don't need one Supercharger to replace each gas station.

About 2/3s of Americans live in single-family homes. Some of those won't be conducive to home charging, but most will be. If even 50% of households can charge at home, that eliminates the need for huge numbers of gas stations supplying cars for the normal daily commute.

We can also build these cheaper slow-chargers at offices, in parking garages, along urban street parking to cover many of those who can't set up their own home charging.

What you're left with is covering long-range travel along highways, as well as those who don't have the ability to charge at home or work. This is what Tesla has always been targeting with their charging network.

Most people who buy a Tesla do not go to a Supercharger once or twice a week. I use one about 4 times per year.

For the chargers that we do need, we also shouldn't be counting on one company to build all of them for us.
