I plan on waiting for NACS myself, but they do have adapters coming to use Tesla chargers on current non-NACS EVs. Some will provide them for free to recent owners.

In Ireland the Tesla chargers have both plugs. The NACS is already attached to a CCS plug in the charger. Depending on the car it releases the combo plug or just the NACS plus. Cool mechanism.

It's more parts that you must bring with you. Also adapters always break and give you compatibility headaches... They should retrofit the port on the car for a nominal fee (say 5 hours of labour).
