You might note that that is from a couple years ago. Tesla is continuing to add more charging stations all the time. For instance, just last fall, they added a huge (more than 50 stall) station along I-5, about halfway between LA and northern California. And that was in addition to the stations they already had along that route.
About making long trips in general, unless there’s some need to make a really long run between recharges, there is a technique that lets you get away with saving lots of time.
Recharging batteries is not a linear function. That is, you don’t get the same number of additional miles/km for a given time at the recharger. When the battery is low, the charge rate is much higher than when it’s almost full. So many drivers only charge enough to get to the next station plus a small buffer. They likely never charge to more than maybe 50 or 60% full, which means they may never spend more than 10 minutes at any one station. Yes, that means they have to stop at every station along the way, but the minutes that they do spend recharging are optimized.
