First Road Trip - Need Ideas for Next Time

I took my first road trip with my Lyriq and needed a charge before returning home. Pleasant experience, except for the charging. The navigation seemed to skip a closer Tesla chargery in favor of an Electrify America one that was two miles further away (even with a NACS adapter selected). No biggie!

The more frustrating part was spending 40 minutes to charge 60% - from 25% to 85% - using a 350kw charger; I was the only car at the specific unit. There were other cars in the chargery though. Preconditioning was automatic since I used the navigation to select my location, so that shouldn’t have been an impediment.

Not saying charging should have been instant, but given the fact it can charge as fast as 190kw, my expectation was that it would average much higher than a 92 average and charge faster. Am I missing anything?

Edit: I’ve learned a lot. Thanks so much for chiming in, everyone!
