V4 chargers where CyberTrucks are more likely to roam. I hope this is upgraded to 1000v, 350kW before it deploys.

Wow. Just wow. I’m wondering though, when we see the V4 power rating match or exceed the power the CyberTruck can pull. Are these V3 cabinets and V4 pedestals? I wonder when we will see an honest to goodness V4 station.

Garkane is already working on putting in the support for Bryce Canyon City’s supercharger, and it is expected to open in June of this year. Oh, and I got my picture on the cover of the Insider! https://www.insiderutah.com/articles/highway-12-electrified/

I know that US-50 has that moniker from the Nevada Tourism Council, but I would give the trophy to US-2, The Highline, as the loneliest road in America. It currently has a 1200 mile SuperCharger deficit, but I also give it the lable of 'coup de gras' for the combustion engine when it is...

I live on UT-12. My vote would be for Torrey or even better yet, Hanksville for the next Supercharger after Bryce Canyon City on Utah's Grand Circle auto route. Kayenta, AZ - which is listed as a target opening in 2024 - would also allow a complete EV Grand Circle tour. Torrey makes sense...

Destination chargers are great for places you go to, and Superchargers are great for places you are going through. A single overnight stop at any of the dozens ok hotels with a destination charger, and travel within the Bryce/Grand Staircase/Capitol Reef area is very easy. I get it though, the...

I have organized a Tesla/EV rally on UT-12 for the past five years. We always travel between Escalante and Torrey, and occasionally pass through Bryce. Each year we require RV site reservations which limits the number of cars that can participate. If this charger is in operation by October, I...

I can eat a meal at Tamarisk and still get back to my car with the V2 chargers. I may still use them during lunch or dinner hours. Unless if course if they install V3 close enough to Rays. Then I will go to Rays.

Green River should be next to get a V3 or better yet a V4 upgrade. It’s always quite a shock to travel through Colorado with superchargers every 25 miles and most of them V3, then get slammed by 100 mile stretches between V2 chargers.

Open!

OK, what's up with the disabled charge posts.

I thought that by the time I returned from a five week vacation the supercharger would be open. Sigh. What is notable, is that it seems when it does open there will be trash cans. This is a major upgrade for supercharger amenities.

I won’t be back in Utah till after thanksgiving. I hope they wait for me to come home before they energize them. SMH

Richfield is my closest supercharger. I'll go make a visit soon. It's also dead center for the Annular eclipse this Saturday, so they should expedite the install - there are going to be a lot of folks in town.

When Ely, NV is also supercharged, Scipio will be a great jumping off point for the loneliest road in America, US-50. Austin, NV next please.
