This is old news, but a permit was applied for on March 22, 2018 at 2616 Whitmore St, Fort Worth, TX. The permit has not been issued. The location is a good sized parking lot. Given the proximity to West 7th area, my presumption is an urban Supercharger.

And if so what's the format?
i know this question has been answered before, but my search-fu fails me tonight. I would like to enter a destination as a latitude / longitude coordinate. How do I go about formatting that in a way the nav understands?

A question I have not seen answered is what charging amperage is most efficient for the Model S. I think I have the necessary data and I have begun to tabulate it as I charge each night. Before I get too far along, I thought I'd ask the teeming masses if there's anything else I should try to...

I was passed by a Black 85 today and I noticed the driver was talking on the phone. Like most of you, I see this all the time, but I usually assume the car doesn't have handsfree. We know that's not the case on the Model S, so I wonder why someone would choose to hold their phone instead. He...
