    Supercharger - Burley, ID - Pomerelle Ave

    For those traveling further north a ChargePoint DCFC in Grangeville is just waiting for a transformer. No fast charges north of there until the casino in Lewiston gets theirs repaired (it’s been months)

    Supercharger - Liberty Lake, WA (LIVE Mar 2022, 12 V3 stalls)

    When I picked up my MS after hours last week they plugged it in at one of the chargers in the back and left the key fob in the frunk. There was no fence around them so after hours they would be accessible. That’s probably why they are listed in the nav.

    Idaho Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    McCall is up and running! ChargePoint 4 dual ccs/chademo 62 kW👍 This will help until the McCall Supercharger gets built. Also Grangeville is built out with 3 dual ccs/chademo finished but has been waiting for a transformer for last 2 months. 😢 Kamiah is unknown at least on PlugShare...

    Chevy Bolt gets the ax

    We will probably do something like that but it’s complicated by us going from a one electric car family in August to three electric cars today. Thank goodness for the BPA hydro and wind we get from Avista. John

    Chevy Bolt gets the ax

    My adult son just took delivery of his new 2023 Bolt (which he ordered 5 months ago) at MSRP. He lives in our downstairs apartment and is currently charging in my shop on a 14-50. He wants to pay his fair share of the increased costs. There is no separate electrical meter so we looked on the...

    Idaho Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    Tesla continues to frustrate driving north/south through the central mountains with no superchargers on ID-55 and US-95. They even took McCall off of the most recent round of supercharging balloting! You may be interested to know i recently noticed the addition of 3 Central Idaho entries on...

    Tesla technician on site. I wanted to talk to him but he was on a video chat and had at least one other laptop open; i didn't interrupt. Could be this week 🤞🤞🤞🤞

    Supercharger - Coeur d'Alene, ID (LIVE Feb 2015, 6 V2 + 8 V3 stalls)

    8 new stalls are still taped -off. new curbing has been poured.. It looks to me that a new transformer has been installed. It is taller and sports new paint. The previous one was faded and stained. But I can’t be certain. Does this have big enough capacity to support six V2s and eight V3s?

    Supercharger - Coeur d'Alene, ID (LIVE Feb 2015, 6 V2 + 8 V3 stalls)

    Nearly complete. The new striping is done but a very small amount of cubing remains to be poured. All 6 original V2s are available for use. Waiting for new transformer and activation. Time frame is anyone’s guess.

    Supercharger - Coeur d'Alene, ID (LIVE Feb 2015, 6 V2 + 8 V3 stalls)

    It’s a 6 stall. The last stall is a pull-in that is currently behind their construction fence. I didn’t think to ask where he was headed next.

    Supercharger - Coeur d'Alene, ID (LIVE Feb 2015, 6 V2 + 8 V3 stalls)

    Construction on the expansion has started!. I visited on site with the owner of Blackstone and he says (not officially, of course:)) that it will be 8 V3 stalls. The existing transformer is not big enough and will have to be replaced although he said the downtime for the existing 6 V2 stalls...

    Supercharger - Sprague, WA

    This is discussion is getting silly. When I stopped in in May the septic system was out. They had 5 or 6 portapotties which were in terrible condition. Full, dirty, no hand gel, no paper products. I checked in again early October and all was well. ”modern clean facilities” as they used to...

    How to precondition while near a supercharger

    The OP is from Minnesota and I’m surprised that you can get away with not charging at night during the winter. I learned firsthand how hard it is to charge a cold cold battery. i posted this in Jan of 2018 before the days of preconditioning: Last February I needed to spend the night in Butte...

    Am I the only one who feels Tesla service is spiraling down?

    The current service center is too small so they are replacing it with a new and much larger showroom and service center (and superchargers) opening up next month. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/new-store-and-service-center-and-superchargers-liberty-lake-wa.233873/

    I’ve been very happy wh the local service. Before the Spokane service center I had a couple visits by our local ranger (Hector!!) Who was great. And after the service center went in Ihave had nothing but quick, courteous, and competent service. Next month the replacement center opens up in...

    Supercharger - Ritzville, WA

    Returned home from Seattle (good Mariners baseball!) and needed to stop here. The navigation screen said 1 of the 4 chargers was inoperable and 1 was available but found out both 1a and 1b were out. Had to wait 20 minutes for one of the two people charging to leave. This tiny supercharger...

    Spokane Service Center

    Stopped by the Service Center today. Their ad hoc "showroom" and sales center is up! Two SAs Renee and Brighton are manning a table in the waiting area and they are selling, delivering and giving test drives here in Spokane! I counted 9 MYs and a few M3s. Not sure how many of the MSs and MXs...

    Spokane Service Center

    Good news for buying a new Tesla in Spokane. Monday I picked up my MS 85D after having the HV battery heater replaced and noticed in the waiting room three people with clipboards, name tags and looking very earnest. I showed some interest and it turns out the younger pair had just been hired as...

    Worst Super Charger in USA?

    The worst supercharger? It’s the one that hasn’t been built yet! US 95 from Winnemucca, NV to Coeur d’Alene, ID has only one SC in Boise. 635 miles! Winnemucca to Boise is doable with a CHAdeMO adapter but Boise to CDA is impossible without a long level 2 charge in the middle. US 95 needs...

    Supercharger - Big Sky, MT

    This usually works great but ....... I charged at the Butte supercharger in mid February 2019 to 90% with plans to top off in the morning over breakfast. Unfortunately it was -6F and no juice would flow. Only after turning the heat on full for 30 min did the battery warm up enough to start to...

    Given lackluster service would you still buy a Tesla?

    Tires rubbing only when in reverse

    I have exactly the same problem. The original wheels 19" and Michelin Primacy tires fit and worked perfectly. I purchased from Tire Rack 19" Rial Lugano wheels and Michelin Ice X snows. Unbeknownst to me these were 8.5 in compared to the original 8.0. Only the snows make the noise when backing...

    Do you own a CHAdeMO adapter?

    I’ve used my adapter 4 times since I got it. Twice it got me home from Seattle when I left puget sound with inadequate charge for the snow and wind conditions over snoqualmie.

    Massive SC subsidizing by new owners?

    Free Supercharging has never really been “free”. when I purchased my MS 85D you could get a Model S (was it the 60?) without supercharging included but rather add it as a $2000 option. We’ve simply paid for our electricity in advance. If you can’t afford 27 cents I’m on PlugShare. Come over...
