You want 'The Aurora"

Looks like they mostly do destination (240v) chargers

Municipal vehicles and munucipal contractors have special parking priveleges in this town.

At the police station in my town the cops use the charging spots as overflow. I think the town has one ev now? The beat cops have rejected it so i think it is marked as code enforcement which seems fair. I will maybe see if i can get a picture

Then it's moot because almost no PHEVs support DCFC at all. The Outlander has CHAdeMO, but that never made sense to me since gas would be faster and likely cheaper for a PHEV on a road trip.

I’ll restate my position: if I am in desperate need of electrons and find the only reasonable charger (or one of the only reasonable chargers) is being used by a vehicle capable of being powered by Dino-juice, I will be very sad ?

If you're in desperate need, you should be looking for a DCFC.

Not with my wife's new Model 3. It just shows you parking spots it sees on the screen and lets you select one with a finger press, then press a Start button, then the car just parks it with backend in. I have not had it fail at all.

Sigh… and Ford says WE can’t have nice things ?

If I’m in desperate need, I was pretty stupid to allow myself to get into that situation ?

Yup. So you should be more mad at yourself than the PHEV.

I still maintain that the vehicle that can use Dino-juice, should be using Dino-juice and not precious (even if only level 2) chargers.

PHEV owners paid extra for the ability to not use gas when they don't need to. They have just as much right to use plugs as anyone else with a plug-in vehicle. I would hope that PHEV owners would have the courtesy to not occupy a congested station, but expecting them to stay away from empty L2 plugs just because there's a chance that a BEV might wander in is silly, IMO.

Where do you get a ticket for backing in to a charging spot?

Here is where it’s illegal-

There aren’t any statewide laws, but certain cities do have this law.

Interesting. I guess that's one downside to not having front license plates. Though it doesn't say anything about charging spaces. I wouldn't be surprised if they're exempt.

Middle of France, didn’t know the people driving in the red Mach-e but they parked close to me. There was sooo much space?
