That's why it's so important TM makes the supercharger dashboard public, it shows which stalls are in use, would be a lot more convenient than stopping at each station hoping there's a stall available.I would tend to agree with this philosophy in the long run. That would be ideal when there are hundreds of stations around and you can pull into any one of them and likely find a spot. For now, we don't have that luxury. If we arrive at SJC and see all the spots are full, we will go to the next one, let's pretend, about 10 miles further, only to find that it is also full, maybe with a bigger wait. Or, maybe not. I think key locations with LOTS of stalls now, and fill in with lots of smaller stations later.
As for charging a fee to use the SC, I would be ok with that, I'm a local user, I have no other place to charge. However I always stay with the car and have never seen anyone wait for a stall. I wish I had a more convenient place to charge, I hate having to wait 30+ minutes, but I don't, at the same time I really love the car, I would not want to go back to ICE.
