    without a “membership” for Tesla charging, the cost is about double any other company

    You cannot use these at all without a Tesla account. That’s how the billing works.

    Tesla’s chargers derate all the damn time.

    As someone who actually uses these chargers, that’s not even remotely true, and even if it were, they can deliver the maximum output for this vehicle (which it rarely ever hits) at about 20℅ or less of their maximum output.

      You absolutely can if you own a Ford or Rivian on Plug and Charge. I don’t have a membership, I’ve used the chargers. Confidently incorrect.

      As someone that’s clearly used them longer than you, you don’t know what you’re talking about.

      That’s why I mentioned vehicles that can charge at a high rate.

          Why do you have to charge every day? How far do you drive?
