Tow Another Day
Put the tow cables back in your trunk.
The recent news of several ICEing incidents — vehicles with internal combustion engines blocking access to electric vehicle charging stations — led to one Tesla owner towing an offending truck away from a charging station using his electric vehicle.
But now, Tesla has come up with a more official solution: using automated barriers to prevent gas-powered cars from parking in front of Superchargers in the first place.

LOL. So now the company circling the drain is excited that they will have to spend more money to put in barriers. Instead of screwing around with this stupid shit they should solve the real Icing problem they have. Cold icy weather making the Model 3 unusable from failing door handles to heating problems.
