Slow governments when it comes to permitting/inspection.

I live near Princeton and drive to my home in Sunderland VT often. I prefer a stop mid way so I often stop in New Paltz or Kingston to break up the trip. However a few days before the eclipse I went up to VT and of course the i87 superchargers were full. I did make it to Hudson NY charger...

Nothing worse then crappy local government goons.

I did show up with a cold battery because I was only driving for 10 minutes when I showed up. I just did not have enough time for preconditioning to do much. Also I had about 55% so I never received more then about 98kW. That could be the site derated but I am betting it was my battery temp...

I stopped here around Feb 17th. The Tesla nav did not make it an option but when I chose it manually the battery did precondition and the 4 most left spots were working fine.

There are some Level 2 ChargePoint (6 kW I think) spots like at the Village Garage Distiller and there is a Level 3 charger by Flo by the town office. I think that is 100kW. Typical CCS however I stopped a year ago here and could not get the charger working with my Model 3 and the CCS adapter...

This is Brewster not Red Hook but of course the process is the same.

I was in Bennington on Tuesday but did not need to charge. The in car system said the site was closed.

I can suggest the Dutchmen Tavern. I had the burger which was good. Beer selection is very good.

I am sure its up to GMP to turn it on now. At most locations this is the slowest step. I hope VT and GMP is fast! Did anyone look at the cable holster to see if this is an magic dock?

This location would be perfect for Magic Dock as well since there is almost no charging up in this area.

I carry a tire valve remover. :)

The Y does get the $2000 rebate as well as no tax. However the NJ rebate is capped at 55k. This sadly include options like color. I just purchased a Y and with color, white seats and two hitch it was over 55k so no 2k off. Still no tax.

I visited VT this past weekend and used this SC twice. Looks like it is still throttled down as I never received more then 130 kW. The first time I visited our Model Y was at 13%.

I am heading up to Killington area on the 5th and plan to use this supercharger. May make a video. Also I had a new V3 system installed about 40 minutes away from my home and noticed for the first few weeks it only charge at 80 to 100 kW so it does seem they keep the juice down for some time...
