I've had two leases in strip malls. One gave me a specific number of parking spaces (not that it made any difference -- customers will park where they want) and the other did not. The more square footage you lease and the more financially solid your business is (e.g. you're going to be able to...

Stopped by on the way home from dinner in Woodland. Progress!

We helped a family member pick up a Model Y at the end of June and the showroom was open, but only 5 people at a time could go in and they were limiting that to people picking up cars. Bathrooms weren't open to the public though. Which was not fun because it took 3 hours to get the car. :(

Happened to be in Woodland for the first time in a while and decided to cruise around Woodland Gateway to see if there was any sign of anything. Surprised I didn't get security called on me, given that I was driving behind Target and Costco. :) Anyway, no signs of even marking anything that I...

I was there at 8 a.m. and it wasn't showing up in the car. I thought about stopping to check if operational but I was really craving Pushkin's. ;-)

Worst case -- there's quite a few free J1772s in Woodland and the Sacramento (Natomas) SC is only 16 miles away. I expect Woodland will only see delays from PG&E. The city itself is known to be much friendlier to projects than surrounding towns. Still, be nice if they'd break ground soon...

As long as you were below 40% SOC you should have seen noticeably higher speeds. Looks like convergence is around 50% SOC.

Oh, nice! Thanks for the info.

Didn't Tesla say they aren't planning on upgrading any existing chargers to V3?

A total valuation of $50K doesn't match with 18-25 charging stations. I doubt 18-25 describes the number of stations. (Especially because "station" is singular)

We got freebies at Williams and Red Bluff right before Christmas.

It seems like you're talking about one specific supercharger? Maybe even this one? I'm talking about quite a few others. An example of one of the ones I'm talking about (a supercharger on Tesla's map that says "Target opening in 2019" but has not broken ground is Woodland, CA. It's been on the...

Telsa's map has "target opening 2019" for superchargers that haven't even broken ground yet. Don't take that wording as any kind of guarantee.

Driving from Olympia down to Portland yesterday, and five of the eight car carriers I saw heading north on I5 were full of Model 3s. :)

I drove through there on Dec 18th and didn't see anything. Folsom isn't known for fast projects, so I think this one will be slow.
