@CharleyBC Atascadero is definitely one of the older installations, and seems to becoming problematic. I haven’t had issues there as yet, but rarely stop there. I do recall they have a couple J1772’s back there, but that nets you 6+ kW, so, not helpful.
As far as stories go, I like to think our (bad) experience was one of the better outcomes for TM.
Shortly after Mojave, CA SC opened, March of ‘15, I was excited to be able to reduce a normal 10 hr drive from the Bay to Vegas (sis in law lives there, but they have Craps too ;-) in an ICE.
Rolled into Mojave as we looked around us at overturned empty Semi’s and hearing about high winds on the radio.
50 mile radius w/o power. I had 8 Rated when we rolled in.
We spent the next couple hours directing a handful of other LA owners south to other charging, whilst we awaited a tow truck from Tehachapi for the next couple hours. They, TM, flatbedded us on their dime to Barstow so we could continue our trip.
What I tell ICE folks, is, that if they showed up with an eighth of a tank, they would have been as screwed as me.
