That may be the biggest Landseer Newf I have ever seen.

I've got to hand it to Tesla, in the Model S they have built an electric car that, at least for the California crowd, could easily be a 'only car'. I didn't think we would get to that point for another 10 years or so.

The "social aspects of charging" - lol...the California is strong in this one. I expect the social aspects of charging to change once there are waiting lines at the Supercharger.

Agree with @fordson1. Tesla charging is a chummy little community today as the supply seems fine to handle the current demand. It remains to be seen how well Tesla will scale its charger network both as thousands more people become customers and as owners wan to find chargers outside the SF-LA-Vegas travel corridors.

Do these Tesla owners show up on Edmunds to remind the journalists how dumb they are for not charging up at night?

Everyone assumes that everything will stay the same. Tesla's history is one of constant change and improvement. The Supercharger network just got another boost in rollout.

@duck87: Well, SOMEBODY has to tell them. Otherwise they'd just blunder around forever...
