This is right across the street from the RV park where I usually make my final charge stop when returning from the S.F. Bay area on I-5.
I wonder how many Tesla owners gave up on waiting in line for "free", and paid for faster slow AC charging at that RV park?
The CEC has funded single and double public DC sites just north and south of there, at Red Bluff and Orland, but even once they're operational, if you try to use them during a Tesla-Jam like this, you'll probably also have a long wait, behind a line of Tesla's using CHAdeMO adapters.

https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/supercharger-live-status.85834/page-21... I am no longer seeing any information about superchargers on my maps? When I took delivery two weeks ago the tech showed me how to see the number of stalls and real time occupancy. Now every time I click the little bolt icon, the list of superchargers comes up with location data, I can see them on the map but there is no additional data once pressed. I can see the list of amenities (wifi, food etc) but where the data should be regarding number os stalls, nothing, nada...
