And here is the parcel map ArcGIS Web Application Looks like the parcel Carls is on contains that area.

Great to hear this news! Last summer, I often made trips in our P85D from South Tempe to some hiking trials past Payson (i.e. Horton Creek). I would end up with ~10-20 miles range left over for the round trip. If Carl's is the spot, here's a few screenshots from google earth of a possible...

Well we arrived in Carlsbad... no charging at this "almost open" SC site though - we straight through from El Centro starting with 235 RM. Arrived at hotel with 56 RM left (used 179 RM - a bit better than the 182 predicted by EV trip planner, but I drove more conservatively). Hotel actually...

Omg. So close. We just pulled into el Centro for the long charge. If someone from Tesla and decision power could just open it, say at around 11:30 pm... We'd be there ... Happy and thankful Tesla owners.

Well, we are heading out right now from Tempe, AZ. Looks like I wont be able to charge tonight when I pass by around 11 PM ish. Too bad :(. Thanks to those who gave us some advice! Will check back just in case there is some late night report of a miracle. Randall

Too bad... Was really hoping to charge here. I wonder if the one? stall that has the bad layout / cable length problem could be somehow cordoned off, while the functional stalls could be opened? So tantalizing close... Randall

Thanks all for the inputs. Unfortunately, I did not buy the CHAdeMO adapter (yet). I did see all those fast DC chargers on PlugShare... Hindsight is 20/20. Yeah, I was not going to do the 100% charge at El Centro- I know that takes a while (we traded our 2014 S85 for the P85D... did...

Thanks for the input. Yeah, I'm not too worried about the El Centro the Carlsbad leg. EV trip planner has that leg at using 182 RM (1.1 speed multiplier, 90 Degrees ext, 400 lbs - all conservative). So if we did a 100% charge at El Centro (to 256 RM? for the P85D - we just took delivery...

Really hope that commissioning on 5/22 (today) is true. My wife and I are traveling from Phoenix to Carlsbad today to get our P85D a clear bra and coated with Modesta at adonisdetail on Saturday and sunday... We'll be passing by this SC site at ~9:00 PM today. We could really, really use the...

Just wanted to give a quick thanks to all the advice I received here on such short notice. I took the advice, shortcuts, etc. from rsanchez (and some electrons from his HPWC too). Trip was wonderful and we had no problems. Here's a few other observations. The chargers in downtown Durango...

I have a 85 Model S with 19 in tires. Tomorrow late afternoon / evening (at near daytime high temp) I will be heading out with my daughter from south Tempe to Durango, Co on our first long distance trip. First leg will be to Flagstaff (overnight, hotel is booked) and is the only one where I...
