Overall Supercharger is meant to be used for trips and is still cheaper than GAS but this argument of having to wait 20 minutes to charge is not really a case for 99% of days as my car never drivers more than 100 miles on any regular days and comes home at night to charge back up. I feel like fueling up and waiting for the tank to fill up is a longer wait than charging my tesla at home. Also waiting in line as a Costco Gas station would be way more than the 20 minutes. Its also not for everyone, Same trip in a modern SUV would cost me about $150 for gas with current Gas prices at $6.29 a gallon.(91-Oct)
Also- People bitching here are mostly the ones not owning one and this post is of no relevance to people who dont even drive a tesla but are here just for the troll :p. The below info is for the people who have showed an honest interest in learning something new or considering a TSLA

Tesla M3LR has 82kwh battery in Virginia at 12c/kWh it could cost $9.84 for full battery, in California at 26 c/kwh could be $21. Others charge free at work (me), free at apartment complex, have membership plans, supercharge only, etc. etc.
Usually the average person saves a lot on gas and leaves house with full charge. IMO after getting used to charging, it's so simple and routine.
If you mean from <20% to 80%, about 15-20 minutes if car is preconditioned. It's a walk to restroom, get a cup of coffee, and a few minutes to scroll-length of time.

They are using cheaper packs from CATL and LG in most of their cars and the same cooling system. The Tech has not changed, the warranty has.
Older cars had larger warranties because it was necessary to calm peoples fears and get them to buy a Tesla. As they got popular, they no longer had to offer extended warranties. Same reason they stopped offering 4 yr added warranties on used cars and ended the CPO program. It is purely a business decision and has nothing at all to do with the old* battery in your car. They are popular enough now that they dont have to offer those features to sell cars. The battery tech and chemistry has changed significantly, especially with the Model 3s now being delivered with LFP batteries.
*Changed a word so someone would shut up.
