    Supercharger - Mesquite, TX

    I've checked the Texas forum every day for some 2 years just to see if there is any news on the "coming in 2018" Mesquite Supercharger. Should I give up hope?

    DFW Airport Charging Rant!

    As a very frequent flyer who drives 130 miles or so to get to the DFW airport, I've really benefited from the well-located and "free" charging stations at terminal A. But the growth of plug-in hybrids and battery-only electric cars (and the lack of growth of charging stations) is causing...

    Leaving your Tesla behind when traveling

    I lost about 2 miles a day on a recent week-long trip. My airport drive is 240 miles round trip. I charge only to 80% since I have a supercharger available somewhat in route. Personally I'd be comfortable with your trip in normal temperatures. Start out with 100% for peace of mind.

    Fun(ny) things about the Model 3

    A few fun observations while my Model 3 is still new to me. Soon enough they'll just seem normal.... 1. My car thinks I have a big butt! When my phone is in my front pocket the door unlocks every time. When it's in my back pocket it never unlocks. What else should I conclude? When my...

    Any Mesquite supercharger insights?

    Any clue where it might be? We live about 120 miles from DFW and this would be the perfect location for us to charge on the way in and/or on the way out of the Dallas area.

    Charging at DFW Airport

    Oddly, the DFW airport chargers nor outlets show up on my mobile app (I did triple check the filters), but do show up on my computer.... When charging at the SemaConnect chargers in short-term parking, does anyone one know if you actually have to have a SemaConnect account? There are...

    Charging at DFW Airport

    I noticed that Plugshare no longer shows charging available in short-term parking at DFW. No Level 2 nor Level 1, both of which used to be on the site. Anyone have any insight as to why they're no longer showing?
