I wouldn’t have driven an EV on the holidays, especially, a non-Tesla. Even the Tesla’s have to wait on the holiday weekends to charge along the I5 corridor.
Yes, the charging landscape sucks for CCS equipped cars. Good write up of your experiences. Thanks.

We use Blink, no complaints., Private membership for the registered users, nice web interface to administer it. Smartphone App, etc. But you pay for the convenience.
