We recently had a chance to put a Tesla Model S through its paces and we had no problem getting where we were going — and back again — despite our testing happening in Upstate New York in the middle of a rather chilly January. The New York Times, however, had a bit of a harder time of it. Over the weekend, Timesreporter John M. Broder published what can only be called a negative report on a failed trip to one of Tesla’s fabled Superchargers. After a series of short charges and a series of drives in a Model S (the very same car we tested, we would add), Broder ultimately ran out of juice and was left stranded, having to tow the car from Branford, CT to the nearest Supercharger, this one in Milford — about 25 miles away.
