    Supercharger - Refugio, TX

    Sorry byeLT4, had meant to post a "no progress" update after our trip to Corpus Christi on the 9th but forgot to. We did encounter our first pay-per-use destination charging at the Fairfield hotel we stayed at. They had 4 Wall Connectors installed, 2 NACS only, 1 Universal with integrated NACS...

    Supercharger - Luling, TX

    That's been my understanding of V2 power sharing since getting my 3 back in 2018. The V2's have been revised over time, such as they maxed out at 120 kW in 2018 and were bumped to 150 kW in 2019. From the Introducing V3 Supercharging announcement in March 2019: Tesla managed to squeeze out an...

    Supercharger - Luling, TX

    Same - our most recent stop was the weekend before July 4th. We arrived with a car waiting ahead of us. We were able to plug in about 5 minutes later. We then went in for lunch, and the car was ready to resume the trip just as we finished eating. We did encounter a number of new Tesla owners...

    Service and Collision Center - Richmond, TX

    yep, out of warranty. Was $302.52. They also took care of the trunk lid harness recall.

    Service and Collision Center - Richmond, TX

    Found out about this location when I scheduled service there for my Model 3, which came down with squeaky control arms today. I'll be taking Talith in the morning of the 15th. Did it just recently open? Tesla's Find Us page doesn't show it yet.

    Supercharger - Pearland, TX

    Was in the area so stopped by at 12:30, no activity to report. There were lots of cars, parking in front of, to the left of, and to the right of the main building were full. Area to the left of the gas pumps was mostly full. There were no cars parked in the area circled in red, so that would...

    Supercharger - Refugio, TX

    Will be a welcome addition for our trips to visit family in Robstown.

    Supercharger - Flatonia, TX

    Buc-ee's in Luling is being replaced with a larger store. Considering Supercharger's have been going into Buc-ee's, perhaps Superchargers will be added when that's done...

    FSD falls back into Autopilot mode

    Thanks for the quick response! I wasn't expecting that as my initial FSD outings were up and down highway 6 and it worked OK there, and then it worked OK on Fort Bend Parkway, which is basically the same layout as SH-99 (divided road with limited access) were it didn't work.

    FSD falls back into Autopilot mode

    Howdy! I'm new to FSD Beta, received it late on the 24th. I used it a few times in my part of town (Houston metro on the south side near highway 6 and Fort Bend Tollroad) without issues (just some interventions required). Last night I visited friends over in Katy. FSD worked at the start...

    Supercharger - Houston, TX - Westheimer Road (Galleria)

    Yep, the car shows them both as 250 kW max locations. If you look closely at the Superchargers in my above photo you can just make out that the stall being used by the white 3 is labelled 3D which denotes it as the 4th stall on the 3rd AC-DC converter stack. The older superchargers are just 2...

    Supercharger - Houston, TX - Westheimer Road (Galleria)

    Partially live. The rightmost one in the photo, and those to the right of it, were not active. My SOC wasn't low enough to utilize V3 speeds.

    Opinions on Chill mode?

    Not something I worry about in Houston, though I did take Talith to Wisconsin over the holidays(documented here if anybody's interested). Before we left Houston I changed all our driver profiles to have settings such as chill mode, no folding of the mirrors, and follow-distance of 7. The trip's...

    Fort Worth to Fredericksburg

    Telsa's charging page shows 2 hotels in Fredericksburg and a planned Supercharger, though that won't help you for this trip. Also check PlugShare, be sure to use the filter and deselect the plugs you can't use:

    Wisconsin to Key West road trip

    Maps are updated on all the handouts. I felt it was getting too cluttered/hard to read (especially on the legal version) so I left out the J-1772 adapter, the Wall Connector, etc. I show the adapter to them if I'm giving the full tour; though I also mention I've only used it one time, and...
