Each of these has more stations/stops than a person would actually stop at. The theory is that it's easier to delete waypoints than to add them.

All of the stops have been entered into the E-touring meta-map (with links to plugshare.com, tesla.com, etc.)

All routes should start and stop at reliable charging stations, J1772, Tesla Destination Chargers, and NEMA 14-50 RV plugs are common reliable charging options in North America.
