    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    Can confirm the new site is permitting now. Location is still on Woodruff Rd northwest of the original site, but not 100% sure of exact spot. Probably in the Magnolia Park complex. Hope to have more info in a couple of weeks.

    Random Model S sightings

    Black with grey 21s spotted on Hilton Head today around noon. I believe with Ontario plates. Cute lady with short hair driving. Nice ride!

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    Just by there this afternoon. Absolutely no change and no one on site.

    What new options would make you trade-up and get a new Tesla?

    The real answer to this for me is the SC rollout. I have many business day trips to cities that are 100-120 miles out. Fortunately, 2 of the 3 cities in question are on the coming soon map. But until then, I'm concerned that a 200-240 mile round trip would be cutting it too close. Destination...

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    No, I actually didn't see any marked vehicles. The contractor was driving a VW bug w/ FL plates the day he was marking off the layout. He has done about a dozen of these, so no telling where home is. Was by there again late yesterday...no change. :confused:

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    I was by there late today for the first time in a couple of weeks. Still no transformer. The only equipment there now is the large storage container and one trailer. Security guard said they came and picked up the "tractor" over the weekend. I'll try to find out something tomorrow. Wish I...

    Supercharger - Charlotte, NC

    ditto, but there ain't no SC in the Charlotte area yet. This would at least provide something while we wait if the adaptor were available. I also believe CHAdeMO could end up being a nice supplement to the SC network in some of the off the beaten path locations.

    Supercharger - Charlotte, NC

    Looks like we have a chademo option (coming soon) in Gastonia right off I-85. Now if the adaptor would get released! http://www.plugshare.com/?location=45854

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    I'm told they are at a stopping point until the transformer can be set. The pad for it is ready and shown in the background of that last photo in Doug H2's post above. Sounds like this will happen next week, after Memorial Day.

    shumdit: I bought some extra time by distracting my daughter with yogurt mountain, so I could get out and snoop around a little. She was convinced I was going to be arrested for going inside the yellow tape! drewnick: It is 8. You can actually see all of them in that first pic. martini...

    Supercharger - Macon, GA

    I'd like to echo a previous request for tips on the surrounding area here. When we are road tripping, a stop must include convenient restroom access for the family. If we pull in here at 9:30am on a Saturday or Sunday morning on the way to FL, where do we go while charging? Any info would be...

    Supercharger - Atlanta, GA

    I was at the Marietta store yesterday and one of the associates there said that the SCs will be installed in the Atlantic Station garage on P1. Possibly in the same bay as the new Chargepoint stalls, but he was not certain. The first 2 hours are free parking in the garage so no need to get...

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    Airj: Yes, you are right on it. In fact, if you click the link you posted and choose satellite view, you'll see the block of 8 spaces they are outfitting. They are set aside in a corner that is unlikely to be ICE'd, but still an easy walk around the building to Whole Foods or across the side...

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    OK, Greenville is good to go. Permit approved yesterday. Equipment delivers Friday. Ground breaks Monday, 5/12. 2000 amp total service to site; 8 stalls. Contractor said he'll be done in 3 weeks. Location: The Point, just around the corner from Yogurt Mountain. I'll post a google earth shot...

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    Based on the issue holding it up, it could be any day. I don't know how quickly ground might be broken though. I have no knowledge of where the equipment delivery stands.

    Supercharger - Greenville, SC

    I can report some encouraging news...a permit application has definitely been submitted for a supercharger at the location in Greenville that airj1012 has previously referred to. There is a minor issue with the plan that is holding up permit approval, but not likely to to cause a significant delay.

    Model X Falcon Doors

    On spring break in FL with family, I immediately notice that the parking space under our rented beach condo is about 6'8" - 6'10" (definitely a little less than 7'). Looking around at the houses close by, this was a common height. The next morning we visit a state park for hike. The very...

    Model X Option Speculation

    Earlier this year in Oslo, Elon said that the X would be 10% less efficient than the S primarily due to larger frontal area moving through the air. JB has stated that adding the second drive unit is energy neutral . There is no mechanical linkage between the front and rear units, so no...

    NEXT UP: Supercharger Network in SOUTHEAST

    FWIW, I just spoke to a sales advisor in Palo Alto by phone to schedule a test drive at the Marietta store. I asked about the apparent slow down. He said the winter weather has played a major role, but that work is ramping back up. He also said that deployment will resume at a pace equivalent...
