In the Tesla, you have the time required till your next step on a long trip.

So, you don't charge until you're fully loaded at 100% but if you're following the instructions, you'll get at your next stop with around 20% left for best charging conditions. You even get the info on your mobile as a notification so you can know you can go back on the road.

I really mean it's a pleasure to drive.

What do you do when you get to the supercharger/other brand station and it's not working and you're at 20%?

What do you do when you get to a petrol station and it's not working? I've had to use my breakdown assistance for this very reason.

Go to another, usually very close, petrol station. In the UK there are lots of them, they are not as someone else said of Tesla Superchargers spread "about half a charge apart".
