    Supercharger - Luling, TX

    I completely agree with regard to the map on the Tesla website, I was referring to the maps in the car or on the app, where this station is not listed yet. Just a long way to go if you find out this message board and supercharge.info didn't get the latest update one morning and the Thanksgiving...

    Supercharger - Luling, TX

    The problem with V2 chargers at Flatonia was that when you pull up and 4 people are charging you never know which of the remaining 4 to choose. Choose correctly and you are pulling down over 100 kWh as the person next to you is almost done, choose incorrectly and you get the remaining 35 kWh not...

    Supercharger - Luling, TX

    I've got a post from nearly a year ago on here as well - the third one on this board - about how badly needed this is, and how Flatonia is over run. I don't blame Flatonia for being the problem here, as it's 6.5 years old (prior to even Model 3's being on the road), and was at the time a...

    Supercharger - Van Horn, TX - Broadway Street

    Couldn't agree more. We do need more redundancy along I-10 as the largest gaps in that network from Los Angeles to Jacksonville are: *El Paso, TX to Van Horn, TX - with it's new now 20 stalls (130 miles) *Van Horn, TX to Fort Stockton, TX (121 miles) *Ehrenberg CA to Buckeye, AZ (116 miles) *San...

    Supercharger - Van Horn, TX - Broadway Street

    The word 'planned' is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that last sentence. They have had a supercharger coming dot of one kind or another in central San Antonio since at least 2018. I didn't have a Tesla before then, so I can't speak to how much sooner it may have been, but 5 years and counting...

    Supercharger - Van Horn, TX - Broadway Street

    Can't say I understand this, but congratulations to those of you passing through. Van Horn, TX: 20 stalls Houston, TX inside the loop: 8 stalls San Antonio, TX inside the loop: 0 stalls

    Supercharger - Converse, TX

    Between this one, Luling, San Antonio - Broadway, and San Antonio - E Basse Rd; I wish someone would offer odds on these being open before or after January 1, 2024. I'd be hammering the after, and sadly cashing in, in about 7 months. I guess the question is, all 4 of the above open first, or a...

    Supercharger - Spring, TX - Spring Stuebner Road

    This area is also very unlikely to be ICE'd, as it behind the shopping center. For those who are charging, there is a nice walk through sidewalk to get to the food, restrooms, and grocery stores in the front of the shopping plaza. With the amenities and quick access to 2 highways (99 and I-45)...

    Supercharger - Flatonia, TX

    I've got to applaud Tesla. With the opening of 16 charging stalls in Big Spring, TX; there are now 24 stalls to charge at on the 170 mile trip from Odessa to Abilene - combined metro population: 510,610. Assuming the 8 stalls in Midland aren't useful for east bound travel. Meanwhile, there are a...

    Supercharger - Luling, TX

    To say this can't come soon enough, would have been true 2 years ago. Now it's well past time. Some general numbers of chargers outside metropolitan areas in Texas between major cities (travel from city to city): San Antonio to Austin: 80 miles, 52 charging stalls. 1 stall every 1.5 miles on...

    Supercharger - Spring, TX - Spring Stuebner Road

    Construction is right where the GPS coordinates are above. This is going to be a great spot, with 16 chargers, walking access to lots of choices for food, and quick access to both 45 and 99.

    Supercharger - College Station, TX - Texas Avenue South

    While I appreciate the enthusiasm on this I must say, horse, meet cart. At this point and after all of the start and stops this has had, anywhere in College Station would be an overdue welcome. Heck, Navasota would be an improvement over the nothing that’s been done.

    Supercharger - Alamo Heights, TX (San Antonio, location speculation)

    This "central San Antonio" dot has moved a few times since 2018, but as you said, always where Google puts it when you type the words in. It was previously at "San Antonio" then "Pearl District" and now "Alamo Heights". None of these have been real, nor has anything on the east side of town...

    Supercharger - Hamilton, TX

    If you want some examples of accuracy: *Beaumont, TX - was on the Tesla website as 'coming soon' in 2019, then left the map entirely in 2020, and has now come back on the 'coming soon' for 2022. This was never included on supercharge.info, and is now listed as permit applied for, which is where...
