    Charge stations should be on the Italian Autogrill model. Only in Italy can you get the best food in the country at a gas stop.

      Hell yes. Unfortunately the Tesla chargers here are not at the Autogrills and you have to get off the motorway and usually into some random hotel parking lot for those. But there will be other fast chargers right at the Autogrills so I end up using those 🤷
