   White River Junction, VT has 7 fast charging stations. Two are behind a gas station and near a McDonald's. That's the best spot. Two are in a Toyota dealership; two in a Chevrolet dealership (that's the one we're at). One is in the parking lot of an abandoned hotel. None are within walking distance of the restaurants, cafes and stores in the downtown.

     We went to the Walmart parking lot across the river in twin city Lebanon NH. There was a line of cars waiting to charge. We figured it was better to find an available charger than wait for people to finish.

     There's a lot more charging infrastructure in the US than even 3 years ago when we bought our car (2017 Bolt EV). But it's all in the most dumbass part of the town imaginable.

     @evan there is one on Cote des Neiges at one of the gas stations. I was surprised. (but it's moot at least for me).

     @evan It would be interesting to see how the number of charging stations is increasing in different places. Exponential, probably. But then again, maybe some places built according to irregular government funding.

     @evan Owning an EV is a great way to get a tour of the worst strip malls in suburbia. Sounds like you don't even have that. Do you have Tesla SC access?
