PDX Supercharger at Portland (Cascade Station). Two Tesla sedans are charging. I pull in, hook the adapter up, off and running. One Tesla leaves and a Lightning pulls in and hooks up then another Mach E shows up and connects. Another Tesla sedan leaves, another shows up. That’s like 50:50 Ford V. Tesla.

PS, I can’t tell the difference between Tesla models.. the ones I saw were all grey-black & dirty. One looked like the driver was either living out of it or had all possessions stored in it. The weirdest experience.

This sounds like the setup to a joke....

But then there isnt a punchline.
that was my intent.. though the living in the Tesla guy was startling.

A Ford and a Tesla pull into a Supercharger. The Ford says "Hey, can I get a boost too?" The Tesla smiles and says "Only if you brought a really long extensions cord."

Nevermind, ill just stop here and stick to my day job.

I can understand living in a Tesla or Lightning. My Lightning cost 3.5 times as much as my first house! :eek:

Tangentially related, with apologies to the OP...

I pulled into a 4-stall EA charger this morning; there were three Silverados plugged in. Surprised me.

No apologies needed. It’s a tilt-shift world now!

I recently got challenged by a group of Tesla drivers when I pulled into a Supercharger stall. Claimed that it was only for Teslas and that other brands should use the Flo chargers on the other side of the lot. Stared dead straight in their eyes as I plugged in my A2Z adapter to the truck and opened the Tesla app to initiate the charge.

I wasn't even taking up two stalls because the place I pulled into had the charger on the side of the parking spot and not the back (corner spot).

Husband went to the sheriff's department to report that his wife was missing.
Husband: My wife is missing. She went shopping yesterday and has not come home...
Sergeant: What is her height?
Husband: Gee, I'm not sure. A little over five-feet tall.
Sergeant: Weight?
Husband: Don't know. Not slim, not really fat.
Sergeant: Color of eyes?
Husband: Sort of brown I think. Never really noticed.
Sergeant: Color of hair?
Husband: Changes a couple times a year. Maybe dark brown now. I can’t remember.
Sergeant: What was she wearing?
Husband: Could have been pants, or maybe a skirt or shorts. I don't know exactly.
Sergeant: What kind of car did she go in?
Husband: She went in my truck.
Sergeant: What kind of truck was it?
Husband: A 2023 Ford Lightning Lariat Extended Range Antimatter Blue, special ordered with Tow Technology Package and power running boards. It has a Backflip Revolver bed cover over an aftermarket LineX bedliner. Weathertech rubber floor liners. Custom 20% Ceramic tint on the front windows, and 30% on the rears and sides. Front grille is wrapped in gloss black. Overpriced Motorsports front beeper delete. Tremor wheels wrapped in BFG KO3 tires and an Eibach Pro Suspension kit set +2.5" in the front to even out the rake. On the back, there 3D printed wire nuts that look like a set of truck-testees.
At this point the husband started choking up.
Sergeant: Don't worry buddy. We'll find your truck.

I don’t think I have even seen three Silverado’s out in the wild yet!
I see more and more Lightnings all the time and have even seen a few new model ys and of course it’s hard to miss the cyber truck.

though the living in the Tesla guy was startling.
Steve Harvey has been quoted as saying he owns nice cars in case he ever finds himself homeless once again, as he was for three years in the late 1980s/early 1990s.

Incidentally, during that time, he slept in his 1976 Ford (I'm not sure what model).
