"Tesla's Supercharger Network Opens to Ford and Other EV Owners, Creating New Revenue Stream"

TL;DR Summary
Ford's EV customers can now use Tesla's Supercharging network, but the short length of Tesla's Supercharger cables means non-Tesla vehicles might have to double-park charging stalls, causing potential inconvenience and reduced capacity at Supercharger locations. Tesla is working to resolve this issue with new "v4" Superchargers, but the problem persists at existing locations. As more non-Tesla vehicles gain access to the Supercharging network, Tesla owners may face growing pains at busy Supercharger locations, potentially impacting the network's reliability and accessibility.
