38 minutes is about 35 minutes longer than it takes to fill the gas tank. That’s not bad if you’re the first person in line for the charger.

If this got crowd-sourced though so that any place with a parking spot and an outlet that would be a good way to scale.

Not sure what the price point would have to be to make it worthwhile for a homeowner to set up a super charger outside their home or just let somebody use their outdoor outlet, and still make a little profit. Would people be into that? I might be okay with somebody parking in my driveway and charging if it netted me a bit of pocket money.
