    San Antonio to Amarillo

    You should have no problems at all between Waco and Round Rock distance-wise. There is a lot of construction around the Waco Supercharger now and it can get nearly full on the weekend so if you can avoid a rush hour or weekend there, it might be a lower stress situation both ways. The Abbott...

    Epic Road Trip

    That's quite a feat with the handicap of pulling a trailer. Smart move to know to charge to 100% and that range estimates are just that - estimates. Plus a very nice list of Superchargers Visited.

    San Antonio to Amarillo

    Yes - that way you don't limp into town late in the day with low battery. That's no fun. Also its a must when you might be staying overnight in a town with no supercharger like Beeville, TX Another trick is to "cancel" the trip before charging - it fools the computer into removing the...

    San Antonio to Amarillo

    I have a Standard Range Plus and have not had any troubles on 500+ mile trips. Just follow the charging stops on the navigation and set your trip charging to the high settings for the final run into town so you have plenty of juice to drive around. But with a Supercharger in Amarillo that...

    Supercharger - Wharton, TX

    This US 59 route/partially Interstate 69 south of Houston southbound en route to Victoria/Corpus Christi/Laredo is not that well travelled. The nearest Superchargers in Victoria and Richmond along the route rarely have I seem more than 1 or 2 others charging there. It's a excellent location as...

    Anyone done any road trips in Mexico?

    I met someone at the McAllen TX supercharger who had driven up from Puebla, Mexico and at the time (October 2021) he said that supercharging was #free in Mexico

    Great eating options! Every Supercharger should have such a good location.

    Supercharger - Harlingen, TX

    Per the Tesla website it looks like the SPI supercharger is no more. There were a lot of destination chargers at that same Beach Resort parking and a Taco Palenque inside. There is also a destination charger at the Hilton Garden Inn. As to Harlingen it was just announced so no news so far...

    Looking forward to this good South Texas addition which will also help on drive from Laredo to Corpus Christi

    Supercharger - Corpus Christi, TX

    Great news - might be the smaller versions that are in other Simon mall garages like Superchargers in Plano/Legacy East and Austin/Domain

    Supercharger - Waller, TX

    Congrats to Buc-ee's to do the Supercharger installations right and fast. This will probably do more for Tesla EV adoption that anything before in Texas. After all, everyone wants to stop at Buc-ee's already, so....

    Supercharger - Round Rock, TX

    Great location just off Interstate 35 with Starbucks/Sprouts/McDonald's/Freddy's all right there.

    Supercharger - Johnson City, TX

    Location is good off of main road US 281 but few amenities nearby - not even a bathroom at the gas station unless you go into the local supermarket. Best aspect is probably its halfway location between Austin and Fredericksburg.

    That should be a good location - right by Interstate 2 and restaurants nearby

    Supercharger - Corpus Christi, TX

    Tesla map shows new Supercharger in Corpus Christi in Q3 of 2022. Should be a good addition since there is already a gallery there and good for travel between Rio Grande Valley, Laredo and Houston and Austin.

    Supercharger - Wharton, TX

    Tesla supercharger map calls this one to be done in 2Q 2022. Also FYI the Whataburger is on the other side of US 59 at the same exit. Two good things for the price of one.

    Supercharger - Three Rivers, Tx

    Supercharger in Three Rivers is well located for a trip north from the Rio Grande Valley but with 75 mph speed limits, little traffic and usually hot weather, range estimates are usually optimistic. Be sure to fully charge 220 miles + to comfortably make the 165 trip from the McAllen Supercharger.

    Road trip from McAllen to Plano, TX

    I have returned from a 1,263 mile round trip from deep South Texas (McAllen) to North Texas (Plano) and wanted to recap a few highlights. I was in my 2021 Model 3 Standard Range Plus. THe SR+ has a 90% charge of 230 miles. At 75 mph from McAllen to Three Rivers Supercharger (163) miles it can...

    9-day USA Tour

    I would agree - it is super easy to fly to Alaska. I went Seattle/ANC on Alaska Airlines and it was not expensive either. When you get there you will hear that the drive from Anchorage to Seward is "number 7 (+/-) on Most Scenic Drives in USA" When we did the drive, I certainly agreed - "only...

    Driving from Dallas to Boca Chica & back with family

    Hello from South Texas - rumours of our End of the Road-ness are greatly exaggerated. Supercharger in Three Rivers is located at Love's Truck Stop with all services, including Subway and McDonalds. Heading south on US 281 from the next town George West to Alice TX is about a 40 minutes drive...
