It's all fun and games till Apple announces their car charges via Lightning.

You absolutely hit the nail on the head with the supercharging network being 50% of the overall appeal and advantage of Tesla. When I bought my Model 3 18 months ago, there was 1 supercharging location within 30 minutes of my house. Now there are 6. If I ever had any doubts about the purchase over the last few months, they were extinguished pretty quickly by the fact that no other ev's come close to that kind of reliability and abundance.

Apple: This is the best car we have ever made.

And then you have Ford that uses buzz words like "largest charging network." Where it's literally just an app on your car that finds ANY charger in America. So Ford did nothing but create a rebranded plugshare app and acted like they did something amazing.

Thank you Marques for showing the metric conversions, very much appreciated.

Apple: You have to buy icloud mileage to keep driving your car.

The answer is obvious. Gas stations need to start having charging stations, which they are starting to. The first gas station to go all in on this will see astronomical ROI, but none of them have the balls. Its not up to the vehicle manufacturers; ford doesnt have gas stations. Gas stations are the most suited to deploy what you are talking about, even better suited than Tesla in many respects.

6:51 the rocket in Elon's profile picture lining up with the reply line is super satisfying.

[joat]

I believe to move forward, we do have to standardize charging stations.

[Patiboke]

Different chargers... Imagine every gasoline car requiring a different brand of gasoline.

Well boys, we did it. The "if Apple made a car, would it have Windows?" joke is becoming a reality.

He is now on a level where elon musk randomly replies to him.

Completely agree that a charging network is a HUGE factor when it comes to choosing an electric car. I've been watching EVs for years, but finally bought a Model 3 largely because of the Tesla Supercharger network. Fortunately, I haven't had any issues with the build of my Model 3 which was not in the first wave of deliveries. Maybe I got lucky. But also agree that Tesla needs to get solid on manufacturing.

[nerdcave]

Imagine if gas stations were specific to your car maker.
