The destination network for me at least has been hit or miss but it is definitely a welcome addition to the solid SC one. There are places where you can't find a SC so a destination one is a big bonus to have as a backup. People have been commenting that Tesla really needed that amount of people in that dept?One thing to add is its not just the Supercharger network, but the destination network as well.
The team that was let go did a great job at providing a solid network of options for charging whether you needed to charge on the go or if you wanted to stop for a night and slow charge.
With Tesla it wasn't so much that you were buying the car, but that you were buying the entire Tesla experience.
Now I don't necessarily think its the end of the Tesla's SC or Destination charging, but its certainly a massive bomb that went off, and will take some time for things to sort themselves out.
I don't believe it was a calculated move at all, but one made out of anger.
This is why I think Elon should go.
He's no longer capable of making strategic long term decisions. The kind of decisions he used to make which convinced me to get a Tesla a long time ago.
If you think about the amount of time it takes to work with local governments for permits, approval and then setting up reliable contractors to install, and power up the SCs it's a lot of heavy lifting for a customer to simply park, plug in with a high percentage of reliability. I can count only two times I've had an issue, and one was that I didn't read my screen indicating that the one I plugged into was out of order prior to getting there.
Anger is a powerful emotion that can cause a fragile ego to make decisions out of pure spite.
