    Good news for South Texas - looking forward to seeing this new NEVI rollout

    Supercharger - Houston, TX - Queensbury Lane (CITYCENTRE)

    Another Simon Properties mall e.g. Houston Galleria, Austin Domain - all with superchargers

    Supercharger - Abilene, TX

    A quick 10 minutes charge in Cisco should be a good first test charge, plus it will prevent you from limping back on low charge. Also keeping to the speed limit will help with range in the Standard Range model. Interesting point about the Tesla account on a private sale transfer. I would...

    First two Tesla road trips: Jones, AL, and Washington, DC, from Boca Raton, FL

    The trip to South Alabama was the best part - very interesting. I'll bet you got a lot of attention driving around there. Pretty smart to get this 6-50 adaptor ahead of time but it paid to know where you would be staying. Good planning ahead makes for a good trip.

    Supercharger - Houston, TX - Telephone Road

    Good location near Hobby Airport and just off Loop 610 and also Interstate 45 South. Spreading the locations around Houston nicely.

    Supercharger - Fort Worth, TX - 6800 North Freeway Service Rd W

    Sickie's Garage has some good burgers so this will be a good location for food options.

    Supercharger - Bismarck, ND

    A quiet location off of Interstate 94. Mainly shopping nearby: TJ Maxx, Kohls. Saw three Teslas charging later in the day.

    Supercharger - Mercedes, TX

    Supercharger - Mercedes, TX is open for business. Exit 165 on Interstate 2. New Gateway Travel Plaza, truck stop in back. Large store with Wendy's attached. Chick-Fil-A right next door. One exit from popular outlet mall. 8 chargers in front corner and another 3 in a separate location...

    Supercharger - Temple, TX

    Buc-ee's in Temple is going to be an absolute zoo on Monday, April 8, with apologies to the animals residing in actual zoos. Harker Heights charger 20 miles to the west should have less charging crowds and is nearly in the Path of Totality. That's an interesting question - which Superchargers...

    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enabled for one month trial this week

    I used this today for the first time and it was very advanced compared to Autopilot. Lane changes with indicator, gets up to speed even on moderate setting, made a safe left turn into the Starbucks. Great 1st test drive for 2 miles on a 55 mph roadway in the city.

    Free Supercharging trip * McAllen TX to Austin TX

    When I bought in December 2023, the promotion was for "6 months free Supercharging". There is a expiration date listed on the "Charging" tab. Since then, the promotion is for "5,000 miles free Supercharging" I would expect that would be tracked also on the Charging tab. It may also just go...

    Supercharger - Houston, TX - Yale Street

    Not easy to find on the roof/upper parking deck of Sprouts Organic Foods and LA Fitness, but once up there is a great view of downtown Houston skyline. Easy access from Interstate 10. And walking distance across Yale St. to Starbucks/ Jamba Juice/ Chiptole.

    Supercharger - Robstown, TX

    Not just any Whataburger, but a brand new one. This section of US 77 south of Corpus Christi/Five Points is a great north/south location. Also branded as Interstate 69 East on this section since it has designated on/off ramps and access roads. The old Outlets at Corpus Christi Bay did not...

    Supercharger - Wharton, TX

    Perhaps my favorite Supercharger location - easy to access - never crowded - with all the Buc-ee's conveniences with fewer crowds (it's a smaller store by Buc-ee's Texas sized measure). A nice view this Easter morning.

    Supercharger - San Marcos, TX - IH-35 Frontage Rd

    Buc-ee's on top of Buc-ee's! This one will only be 10 or so miles from the New Braunfels store. Interstate 35 traffic should certainly support the decision.

    Supercharger - Pleasanton, TX

    Recent status - looking pretty close to open. Lot of exit traffic from Southbound Interstate 37.

    Free Supercharging trip * McAllen TX to Austin TX

    I had the opportunity to take my first "Free Supercharging" trip to Austin, which is about 660 miles round trip in my 2023 Model 3 RWD. It has a nice full range of 264 miles which is a improvement over my previous 2021 Model 3 SR+ with a range of 230 miles. With a full charge it was pretty...

    Supercharger - Mathis, TX

    Very close to the new Tesla lithium factory under construction in Driscoll TX near Corpus Christi. Maybe it has some specialized function?

    Supercharger - Harker Heights, TX

    Nice location near the obligatory Target per @vanjwilson. Much less traffic on Interstate 14 than Interstate 35.

    Supercharger - Temple, TX

    New charger installation in back NE part of lot. Green lighting looked nice at this time of evening. Definitely not Tesla. Very light Supercharger usage on a Friday evening. New building construction on South side is a Buc-ee's car wash, which is the first one that I am aware of. Should be...

    Supercharger - Falfurrias, TX

    This location is actually very easy to access from the highway, plus the HEB is close by.

    I think that separate station (split charging stations) is making this much more complicated than normal.

    Supercharger - Wharton, TX

    Yes this is an unusual "rear of store" location for Buc-ee's. It would seem most likely to put in more on that back side. Nice to be able to avoid the front gas pump traffic.

    Supercharger - Laredo, TX - San Dario Ave

    There's really no other location in Laredo to put something like this other than the mall/I-35 area. The existing Supercharger is pretty old in Supercharger years.

    Supercharger - Temple, TX

    Maybe its one of the Inflation Reduction Act 5,000 superchargers to be installed within 1 mile of an Interstate. If so it would be the first one in the state of Texas. Certainly an obvious location between DFW and Austin, Interstate 35, already 45 Superchargers in the same location. There is...

    Supercharger - Refugio, TX

    I passed by as well - I would say that the location of the concrete work on the north side is a good indication as to the future Supercharger location. It will be a nice midway point between Houston and South Texas when it does arrive.

    Supercharger - Austin, TX - N Mopac Expy

    I would expect this would eventually replace the 72W chargers at the Domain next door- Century Oaks Terrace. On the other hand, more is better.

    Tesla now handling TX registration and sales tax

    This was a major difference for leasing. When I leased my first Tesla Model 3 in early 2021, I had to pay the $2400 +/- sales tax and registration separate from the down payment of approx. $4500. This time around in December 2023, I had the option to have the taxes and fees included in the...

    Supercharger - Kingsville, TX - E Corral Ave

    No activity for now, but there is major construction on the new Tesla Lithium factory just 10 miles north near Driscoll TX. So that might be more of the thinking for this location. This location is next to the Love's Truck Stop on the north side of Kingsville. Looks like it will be at a...
