That to me is a bigger concern, although I know plenty of people rely solely on supercharging. For me personally one of the things I like MOST is that I always have a full "tank". I never have to deal with going to charge, it's like having my own personal full service gas station at home. It's always charged when I need it and I never need to go further than it's range.

Not exactly "plug-n-play", but not too big a deal. Still, obviously that still doesn't give her access to the Tesla Supercharger.

As an aside, if I were paying tuition to that school, I'd raise hell about this situation with proprietary chargers in public parking facilities.
