Apologies if this has already been discussed but I can't find a thread on it...
So I turn up at a Supercharger where there are 8 stalls but only 4 are able to support my Model 3 (CCS). There is a Model S on one of the CCS stalls and Model X on another (with a gap in between).
I go to charge in between them (therefore "sharing" with the Model S ) and the driver winds his window down and shouts angrily at me to "move to another stall as it will only give us slower speeds". I explain to him that I have no choice due to my car only able to use the CCS plug but he can use the other 4 none-CCS stalls which are available. He huffs and puffs and I ask him whether he is going to move to which he replies "No".
So it was fine for him to ask me to move but when I explained that I literally cannot charge at the other stalls he decides to let us both sit there "splitting" the charge rate. Although i considered it, I wasn't rude to him and just let him get on with it (had a game of 2048 and Beach Buggy to keep me occupied) but I was wondering what other people think the etiquette should be here; and whether anyone else has run into anything like this and what happened?
Hopefully this isn't a long-term problem as Superchargers are all upgraded but for now I think there needs to be a public service announcement to Models S and X owners to let them know!
