Not an issue for me as I only drive around town and have never used DCFC. But based on all the many comments about range anxiety I do not care how much the adapter costs not Tesla charges, opening the SuperCharger network is going to be a major infrastructure improvement. The thing I wonder about for the future is how big of a monopoly on charging infrastructure Tesla may eventually obtain.I don’t want the FP app to do anything. It can’t do half the crap it was supposed to reasonably and they’d have yet another thing to have Ford screw up. If Tesla is supposed to do the software fantastic, it’d actually get done. The FP app being another failure point in the chain of things that could make this not work.
we’re still waiting on a known L2 charging issue from nearly a year ago.
if a $200 adapter is needed to enable us to pay even more for kW just in the off chance we’d need a SC to go somewhere I don’t think this has much of a chance of solving any infrastructure issues. Until NACS is plug and charge it’s going to be an uphill battle to get people to even use it. If I have to pay more, on all fronts and Ford screws it up to be another EA type of charging juggle it’s doomed. It’d take a few really long road trips to level out the $200+ adapter and higher kW costs.
