It happens quite frequently at certain chargers in California - I've experienced it at San Diego (Qualcomm), San Mateo, Mountain View, Cupertino, Dublin etc - there have been queues at those chargers when I've been there, anywhere from 5 to 10 cars. In some other urban areas they have been quite busy but not full - e.g. Toronto, Vancouver, some places in Florida. In most of the rest of the country you're usually lucky if you see another Tesla at a Supercharger. I don't know about my local (NJ) SpC's as I never go there.I've seen a lot more EV's around my neighborhood, and our local chargers are almost at max capacity, but I wanted to know if anyone has been to a Supercharger and had to wait for someone else to leave to begin charging?

I've never been to one in California, either. That's where the ownership density is really heavy, so Tesla is having a LOT OF trouble keeping up with capacity there.
In Wisconsin I have only seen full once breifly but 20minutes earlier it was empty and they since added a second location nearby at least tripling capacity. Otherwise I have only seen half full.
In California people line up nicely, in my experience, and wait their turn. In some locations Tesla has somebody there to police the line (Mountain View, Cupertino) or a valet who will move your car while you shop at Whole Foods (San Mateo). I never drive on the holidays on the East coast, so I have no experience of that. Avoiding I-95 seems like a good idea in any case.When a charger is full, where do you wait? How do you keep your place in line and make sure that some jerk just pulling into the parking lot doesn't dart for the stall that just opened up? Is there some sort of etiquette for this on the west coast?
I'm trying to decide between taking my MS or taking my ICE car to my hometown (2 super charger stops) for Thanksgiving. My fear is that the charger stalls will be pretty well filled up for that trip. Rather than going up I95, I go through PA, stop at Allentown, then stop in Tarrytown, NY. Far less traffic and tolls.
After that Aug 2017 eclipse many of the intermountain superchargers filled up immediately afterward, although there were few delays for the two days prior as people traveled, in case that helps. Otherwise have done twenty roadtrips and never seen one full....I'm trying to decide between taking my MS or taking my ICE car to my hometown (2 super charger stops) for Thanksgiving.
