TESLA OWNERS CREATE SUPERCHARGER QUEUEING SYSTEM DURING 100 CAR DEMAND SURGE!

EV Channels Review

This video highlights a unique, community-driven solution to a growing problem: Supercharger queues. The host recounts an experience in Gainesville, Florida, with a 10-minute wait, but the core of the episode focuses on a more extreme situation in Plattsburgh, New York, during the solar eclipse. There, over 100 Tesla owners, faced with a chaotic charging environment and a broken charger, spontaneously created a manual queuing system using handwritten numbers on paper. The system, initiated by an owner dubbed 'Number 11,' evolved with owners taking turns managing the line, with the highest number reaching 120. The reviewer praises the owners' initiative and orderliness in the face of chaos, while strongly urging Tesla to implement a technological solution. The video suggests GPS-based queue management as a potential fix, acknowledging the complexities but emphasizing Tesla's capability and obligation to address this customer service issue as EV adoption grows. The narrative also touches on the host's own 27-hour drive to Florida and a brief encounter with another Tesla owner, Norbert, who shared his Plattsburgh experience.
