A few customers waiting doesn't mean "overwhelmed", and waiting at a few stations doesn't mean overwhelmed network. Lol!

The waiting to get a Model S is only a few weeks. The wait time for a custom-made GM is 2 months.

Like who? All other EV's (including my Chevy Volt) get much less battery range and aren't nearly as fast. The upcoming Chevy Bolt is still a year away. The BMW i8 is sexy on the outside dumb as a post on the inside. ("Fake" motor noise through the speakers, LOL!) The Mitsubishi EV is ok but no where near any other EV. Tesla is win, win, win all around.

And then there is this:

Tesla Model 3 'approaching' 400,000 pre-orders as GM boss throws shade | ZDNet

Epic Fail, Sir Mo, Epic fail.
