How did you get the $1200 doc fee waived?
No!!! The superchargers don't use the car's internal charger, they charge the battery directly.Thank you for your awesome suggestions.
When you take the MS for a longer drive and use a Tesla Supercharger, I hear the high amp charger gets to you like 80% charge in 20-30 mins. Is that true?
What's your experience been? Are you happy with the range for the Model S 60 that you have?
[Still reading more on the 60D being chargeable to 100%... not sure what that does to battery life... thanks for the heads up though].
Sorry! Long rant, and someone else answered in 10 well-chosen words. Pays to read to the end...No!!! The superchargers don't use the car's internal charger, they charge the battery directly.
The cars own charger is used when you're on AC power, such as at home or at some destination (hotel) which has a tesla wall charger (HPWC).
In that case the standard charger can suck 11kW max, but the upgraded charger can draw 16.5kW.
So basically, the only reason to pay for the upgraded charger is if you really need to charge fast at home (if you have a wall charger installed) or at some destination.
Usually destinations are overnight (hotel), so even the standard charger has plenty of time to fully recharge the car overnight (takes 6-8 hrs from empty, depending on battery size).
The upgraded charger would be useful if you were going to stop at a destination charger for lunch to grab some extra juice for a long trip. That's about it.

Congrats to you! Keep browsing the forum as there is a wealth of knowledge here.
Sure thing. Good luck!Reached out to my DS in Chicago to get their thoughts on the waived $1,200 offer. Guessing they'll tell me "no chance," but it's worth a shot. Thanks for the post about it.
Looks like this offer is now gone.Is that waived D&D fee still available for new orders?
