    Great move Tesla! Every major airport should have a similar setup, as all have a waiting lot for Rideshare, the perfect place to recharge. It will also free up many other SCs from Uber drivers. LOTS of current EV Rideshare drivers now and it will only multiply in the coming years. I've been...

    Supercharger - Scottsdale, AZ - N Miller Road

    Stopped by today and talked to a worker from EVI. He said they usually work in CA but Tesla just keeps giving them more jobs. He confirmed 12 V3. He knew about V4s and said they've done one in CA but not here yet. It's situated in the farthest parking from most of the stores so will limit ICING.

    2 QUESTIONS 1) Fair Warning?? I've clearly not been on this thread for a while.... what's all this Fair Warning talk mean? 2) Is anyone else planning on going to the CyberTruck Event Nov 30th? I'm planning on road-tripping from AZ. I currently do NOT have a ticket to the main event but...

    Well if the OP actually saw a Tesla rep AND it's 12+ stalls, I'd say it's pretty solid. Not many EA sites with that many stalls. This is a much-needed location that is (hopefully) finally addressed and in the center of a big hole. Now we just need to get downtown Tempe and downtown PHX a few...

    Good info. True on the booking part... and I'm a terrible planner. Usually decide the last second so I'll probably be car-camping lol

    Why Del Rio for the eclipse? Why better than Austin for example? I was born in Del Rio (Dad was Air Force - we were there 3 full months lol) but was probably doing Austin for the eclipse (and if I'm REALLY lucky, pick up my CyberTruck the same trip) But now you have me wondering if I should...

    Wow, this is the most action PHX has ever seen! 5 current sites under construction and 2 more with permits? Fantastic, keep them coming! Hopefully, Old Town Scottdale, Downtown PHX, and downtown Tempe are next, along with Fountain Hills, Globe, Show Low, Prescott, Wikiup, Williams or...

    Supercharger - Scottsdale, AZ - 7366 E Shea Blvd

    Scottsdale is huge. The problem is North Scottsdale is getting all the SCs just miles apart, while Old Town (Fashion Square Mall) or further South has nothing. A large Old Town SC would also help Biltmore and Arcadia areas which only have one Urban SC that's often swamped.

    Supercharger - Kayenta, AZ

    For the time being, the best stop is Goulding's Lodge & Campground just N of Keyenta across the Utah border. If you have the time, you can car camp overnight (it's allowed), you can wake up to a full charge... and it's one of the most beautiful campgrounds I've ever been to in 48 states.

    When has a site ever been done in 2 weeks? Def an Elon time quote from that guy. LOL Too bad this site isn't 24+ stalls. Will be busy all the time from day one.

    New construction under the parking garage right next to the existing SC... not sure what it is yet...

    Supercharger - Flagstaff, AZ - US-89

    Looks like it might be a while… I’d imagine they will pave this before opening. It’s all locked up now. Not sure what kind of weather they need to pave but we got a ton of snow in January

    Just noticed a new update on the mobile app.... You can now see ALL the current SC availability icons on the Location tab by just scrolling to the area and zooming in. Before you could only see a hundred or so miles from your current location.

    Supercharger - Las Cruces, NM

    This is great. I'd like to see the current gaps in the I-10 corridor filled with V3s so we can skip the old ones if we want. Still a somewhat neglected Interstate, but slowly getting better!
  19. Sasmania

    Supercharger - Phoenix, AZ - North 19th Avenue

    Yea agree. All new locations are 250 so they will all be a big help one way or the other. We also need new ones on the 1-17 up to Flag since the current ones are all slower as well as Flag proper. There is the EA station in Flag by the east side Walmart which we now have access to via a CCS...

    I wouldn't say that's the most needed or convenient location, but hopefully takes some strain off of Biltmore? Every SuperCharger is a good SuperCharger in my book! Keep them coming, let's get a few more up and running before SuperBowl week and March Spring Training so me and my fellow Telsa...

    Supercharger - Tempe, AZ

    Hopefully the Tesla Team building out AZ knows the Super Bowl is coming this Febuary and opens Mayo, Mesa and hopefully a couple more surprise locations before then. We don't want any bad press about EV charging when the spotlight is on!

    Supercharger - Van Horn, TX - Broadway Street

    I'm always happy with new builds...but why not stick one somewhere in-between the current chargers on I-10 first before doubling up? They really need less space between chargers for those towing and just to offer more options anyway.

    I'd say put one in Foutain Hills off the 87. Then it's even further up the hill and serves that community. As long as they keep adding new ones all over, it's all good!

    Model Y Owners - Preordering a Cybertruck

    I got a PY in Nov of '20 to tide me over till the CyberTruck comes. Thank God I did, knowing how long it's been delayed. Honestly, if Tesla comes out with a ~400 mile Y, I will even upgrade to that, assuming it comes out fairly soon and CT still seems a ways off. I tow, I snowplow, I road...

    Yea, I think Austin now has more SCs per capita than anywhere in the world. LOL. At least we can say "Yea you went to GigaFest? So what, I cleared Austin on TMC while you all wasted time inside some boring factory"

    Grabbed Glendale AZ today. Hopefully a good chunk of TEXAS next week during GigaWeek... no ticket as of yet but there's always hope right??

    Supercharger - Albuquerque, NM - Louisiana Boulevard Northeast

    Sadly, the one pull-in seems fairly useless unless you just have a bike rack as there isn't much space to avoid blocking traffic. Oh well, at least this site will take most of the traffic away from the original V2 that has better pull-ins.

    Supercharger - Lake Charles, LA

    Agree! If there are other open spots, it's not worth checking... but if all the other spots are taken, definitely check the "down" ones. I've charged several times doing that.

    Supercharger - Lake Charles, LA

    I've seen several posts on Social Media (and I'm in AZ) about super long lines at this site today. That's what happens when there's any small hiccup and there are only 6 V2 stalls along a Major Interstate and no other options. I don't know why there isn't more priority given to the intestate...

    Supercharger - Glendale, AZ

    Yea, PHX is WAY behind just on infill for local users. It's literally the first V3 (along with only one V2), when hundreds of much smaller cities have many more V3s. We need 5+ more infill sites just to catch up to a typical similar-sized city. This site is also near the State Farm Stadium that...

    Supercharger - Glendale, AZ

    Found it! Yes, between Dutch Brothers and Dave N Busters. 16 V3 Chargers. FINALLY, Phoenix, only the 5th biggest city in the USA, gets it's very 1st V3 Charger! Hopefully this breaks the seal to a flood of new SCs so we can catch up to the rest of civilization with some decent V3 coverage...

    Supercharger - Cabazon, CA - Morongo Trail (LIVE 9 Feb 2022, 12 V3 stalls)

    I'm happy that most drivers are smart enough and courteous enough to either move out of a pull-thru spot if not towing and someone needs it OR unhitch if they are towing and will block other drivers from charging. However, we all know this isn't always the case. Many newer drivers may not...

    Where did you get the 700 pedestals added in 2 years? A reliable source or just extrapolating from the "we want to triple in 2 years" or similar message Tesla put out about the entire SC network? It does sound like you've got some inside scoop :) Either way, I sure hope you're correct! That...

    Supercharger - Gila Bend, AZ

    Yes, I saw an FB post as well. 8 new stalls. Sounds like the same location, but I can't tell from the photo. I'm excited they seem to be expanding a lot of existing sites around AZ. I'm guessing adding to an existing site may be easier permit-wise than a new site? However, all things...

    No Pull-Thru stalls in the land of CyberTruck? I don't understand why Tesla (seemingly) isn't planning ahead for a huge increase in towing capacity at SuperChargers?

    It's crazy the Frunk's closure is one of the worst engineered parts of these amazing machines that's no better now on a refreshed Plaid than in my old 2012 P85 and is the same across all models. I'm guessing there's some "reason" why but the fact they still have issues and you have to read a...

    Supercharger - Trinidad, CO

    Yep, that's my trailer...about 3000Lbs with the load. There was also a nasty crosswind that didn't help either! At this point, Tesla should not have any 100+ mile gaps on the interstates, not just for towing but for more options for all and to spread the demand around.

    Crew here now installing the 3 V3 chargers. Had to use EA Charger in Wagon Mound to make it from Las Vegas NM with a full charge... so really hope they add something in the middle, or I'll have to pay EA instead of Tesla...lol

    Supercharger - Albuquerque, NM - Louisiana Boulevard Northeast

    Finally! Hopefully, it's a lot more than 8, unless they have multiple locations coming soon. Most of 1-40 is pretty weak TBH in its current setup. We are going to see an explosion of EVs in the next few years obviously.
