So I've done a few supercharging sessions in the half month of driving the Model 3. And at the dealership, they always say you can go eat / shop while you're supercharging. To make the idea of charging sound less shitty.
But when I go to superchargers, I see some people who just stay in their car. Mostly older people not really millenial looking people. I thought everyone was on the same page that you're supposed to make most of your time supercharging by eating / getting coffee / shopping at whatever was around the super charger. But seems some people just stay in their car and literally wait there doing nothing.
Seems kinda depressing to just wait in your car because charging takes like an hour. So far, I only tried supercharging because it's free (6 months) and just for the heck of it.
I thought Tesla super charging stations would be some kind of Tesla owners gathering place where you can talk to other Tesla owners. Like a hang out, but it's not really like that, just seems like a place people don't wanna be at but have to. I just find it depressing when I see people just sitting in their car doing nothing, especially if the surrounding business are still open.
Plus, I tried explaining to my mom that while supercharging, it best to do shopping / get food while charging so you're not waiting around for an hour doing nothing. But she wanted to stay in the car, which I did not understand why, but whatever.
Maybe if I have to go on a roadtrip and need to charge in a rural area with nothing around or businesses are closed, I should bring some chairs and a camp fire to pass the time. I wonder if other Tesla owners would be down for that idea or if they're gonna be lame and just sit in their cars.
