Went by today several workers there doing some work inside the cabinet. One of the workers said maybe next week?

Still not powered up. Checked at noon .

Stopped by on Saturday afternoon. Conway Corp workers were there finishing up their work. One of the workers said they would be done with their work that day and were just waiting for the Tesla electrician. Stopped by today and tried to charge no luck. Imagine activation is imminent.

Just called the store and they’re now saying the supercharger is supposed to be open next week.

Stopped by this morning. Plugged in but no power yet. The cashier inside thought they would be open next week.

Facebook Groups

Just got the photo from the AR EV owners Facebook page. Probably will head out there in the next week.

Ozark coming along

Received an email response from Taylor Workman concerning the Ozark location. He said “Yes coming this fall!”

Stopped by the Workman Travel Center in Ozark last weekend. Asked the cashier if she was aware of a supercharger going in at this location. She said Tesla has been out and thought that construction had started. Looked around the parking lot but saw no signs of any construction yet. Fingers crossed.

It's been reported on the AR EV Owners Facebook page from a reliable source that a Tesla showroom will open in LR in the next six months. If this happens maybe a service center and more superchargers will follow.

Looks like our Arkansas superchargers scheduled for 2018 have been pushed to 2019 on the Tesla website. Maybe they'll be the v.3 type superchargers.

Just called the Holiday Inn Express in Forrest City, the person at the front desk didn't know anything about the chargers and even went out and looked in the parking lot and didn't see anything besides parked cars. Will be anxious to see some pics to confirm.

Checking the Plugshare site this morning I see that Electrify America plans to install Chademo and CCS high speed charging at the Wal Marts in Forrest City and Hope, AR. Of course to use the Chademo you need an adapter. Apparently Model 3's can't use the adapter for the Chademo without a...

Looks like Tesla's latest supercharger map still has Fort Smith, Clarksville, Bentonville, Arkadelphia, Forrest City, and Blytheville locations opening this year. Find Us | Tesla

alderct: You must be getting excited about your Dallas delivery on Saturday. Hope all goes well! My son-in-law will have his M3 delivered in the next few days - just a matter of setting up a time with the truck driver. Its coming from an inspection area in Alabama. CSFTN: Elon tweeted...

My son-law got his vin assignment this morning, almost 10 weeks after configuring. Hopefully delivery will happen in the next couple of weeks. Was up in KC at the service center and got to sit in a Model 3. It’s a beautiful car! They had a dozen they were prepping for delivery. Also found out...

alderct. What color Model 3 did you order?

Congratulations! Looks like deliveries to Arkansas are about to begin!

I wonder if anyone in Arkansas has received their Model 3 yet. My son-in-law ordered one through my account on February 1st. He configured on February 19 and Tesla said delivery in 3-6 weeks. Well it's been 7 weeks and he's getting anxious. Once ViN assignment has been made it should be...

A third supercharger permit was just found in North Dakota! This is getting frustrating!

Maybe it's time to start calling the building departments again! I was at the LR supercharger this afternoon with 40%charge on my S100D started at 117 kw. Seemed OK.

Has anyone heard anything lately about superchargers in the state? It's been almost a year since the construction of the LR supercharger. I've been in contact with the planning commissions in Bentonville, Clarksville, and Fort Smith and no contact from Tesla as of yet. With all the increased...

Current owner s and x, Just got my invite ordered Feb 1.

Just talked to mall security, they said it shouldn't have happened. They will look into it. Every time I've charged at this location mall security has been very friendly. Must have been a new mall cop. Was there on Thursday and received 115 kw on my S100d. A technician working there at...

Update on destination chargers in Conway. Comfort Inn on Museum Road 2 connectors working /64 amps Comfort Inn on Sanders 4 working 40 amps Holiday Inn Express on Sanders 2 connectors working /72 amps and the other 12 amps Candlewood Suites on Sanders 4 connectors just added/72 amps

Update on the Conway destination chargers. Comfort Inn on Museum Rd. all 4 working 64 amps got 41 mph on my S100D Comfort Inn in north Conway all four chargers still flashing red Holiday Inn Express in north Conway only two working, one gave me 72 amps and 47 mph and the other only 12 amps 6...

The Tesla destination chargers at the 3 hotels in Conway are still not operational. I spoke with Chris Smith, the general manager of the Comfort Inn on Museum Road and apparently they are waiting on a breaker switch backordered from somewhere in Texas. It's frustrating because they are listed...

The Tesla chargers at the Comfort Inns and Holiday Express in Conway are still not operational. Universal connectors are. Will check again this weekend.

Just spoke with the general manager at the Comfort Inn on Museum Road (Exit 127) in Conway. He said he expected it to be free for patrons and non-patrons as long as the spots were available. There are four Tesla connectors and two universal plugs at each hotel. Tesla foot the bill for the...

Will ask this weekend. They're installed but not turned on yet. Apparently the owner/manager of the hotels owns a Tesla.

3 more Destination chargers added in Arkansas; Holiday Inn Express, Comfort Inn and Comfort Inn and Suites all in Conway. Once I-40 and Bentonville get superchargers I think Leslie, Arkansas would be an ideal location for a few superchargers. It's about halfway between Little Rock and...

Evan, will be interested in Tesla's response. Hopefully not just one of their typical form letters. Due to the dramatically increased rate of SC openings recently I am optimistic that I-40 will get finished in the next 6 months. (I think they opened 26 new superchargers in the US last month.)...

Tesla has been busy installing their Destination chargers at Arkansas hotels. Arlington Hotel in Hot Springs (8), Fairfield Inn and Suites in Benton (4), Wingate by Wyndham (6) and Residence Inn (4) in West Little Rock, Best Western Sherwood Inn and Suites (8) and Wingate by Wyndham (3) in...

We've made the trip from Conway to Crystal Bridges many times in both our Model S 85 (2014) and Model X 90D(2016). Both vehicles get about 255 miles range at full charge. (Of course, Conway is 30 miles closer.) The HPWC at the Super 8 in Russellville is reliable, make sure you use the the 80...

just put in a suggestion to Tesla about putting a supercharger in Ozark, AR at the I-40 Travel Center. The parking lot is huge and they already have level 2 chargers in place. It's at the junction of the Pig Trail to the U of A and I-40. It splits the distance between the Little Rock SC and...

Southeast and northeast Arkansas will have SC gaps for awhile. In March we went to Seaside, FL in our Model S 85 and routed through Monroe, Jackson, Mobile SCs. Getting to Monroe from LR in a Model 3 might be a stretch, however.

I was there yesterday, labels on both sides.

Onward to Fort Smith! Anyone live in the area to keep an eye on any activity. I've made some calls to some hotels to no avail.

Just got an email from Tesla they say the SC is operational! Don't see it on my nav yet.

Stopped by the LR supercharger today. The meter reads 000000. Does that mean that the power is on? Also talked to someone in the mall office and he sounded frustrated that Tesla won't tell them anything. Since the construction has finished in LR, Sidney, NE, Flatonia, TX, Tupelo, MS and...

Just spoke with the city planning directors in Alma and Van Buren, AR. They were both interested but said they had not received any plans from Tesla.

I spoke to mall management yesterday. They had no further info and told me to check the Tesla website. Sounded like they had been getting lots of inquiries.

My son-in law took these pictures today:

Sydney, NE was activated today, maybe they'll swing down south and activate LR and Tupelo by the end of the week.

Anwar, Could you be on the lookout for any supercharger activity in the Fort Smith area? I'm hoping that's where the next SC will be located effectively allowing for coast to coast travel on I-40.

I emailed the supercharging team at Tesla to see if they could give me any info on the opening of LR and Tupelo SCs. I'm sure I'll get a stock answer. Hopefully it will happen soon. (Was at the LR site yesterday still no change.) Was happy to help a fellow Tesla driver (KWH) with some...

kWH, I have a NEMA 14-50 inConway you're welcome to use overnight. My email is [email protected] Bill no longer lives in town.

I have the standard suspension on my Model S85. No trouble clearing the curb.
