We've had our S for about 7 months now. Only twice have we had to visit a Supercharger. The first time was free which was nice. Today we had to stop at a Supercharger due to the length of our trip (of course!) The price was 42 cents/kWh! Three and a half times what we pay to charge at home!! Really? Tesla builds the Supercharger, keeps it functioning and pays to lease or purchase the space and over the lifetime of the Supercharger it gets used thousands of times. No employee has to be present at any time except for the above mentioned repairs. Even the billing is automatic. Makes me wish I could find a business where I could charge a 250% mark up with so little overhead. One reason Elon didn't mention when discussing his reasoning for not making a major push for longer range in his vehicles, his profits from the Superchargers.
