I'd be very surprised if it takes me more than 5 minutes with pay at the pump.
It's a difference in magnitude that's the problem. For 5 minutes, of which half is spent actively interacting with the hose and payment, I can comfortably stand around. Anything more than that and I have to find something else to do while my car is occupied.

- anoncake 8y agoThere arent that many things you can do within half an hour at a charging station.
- btilly 8y agoAs someone who has used one, I disagree. Tesla has tried to establish charging stations near shopping areas. There is generally lots to do. For example the last one I visited had multiple fast food places, an outlet mall and a casino. (This was in Primm, Nevada.)
