    Supercharger - Oklahoma City, OK - NE 36th St

    I wish that were true. Charged there Saturday night. No Leo’s. I asked an employee inside where the Leo’s was and she said, “Nobody knows! They just left.” So we went a block over to a technically adequate Wendy’s.

    Supercharger - Oklahoma City, OK - W Sheridan Ave

    Tesla service guy (I know I know) said rather definitively that the deal on this site had fallen through, which is why they put all their resources into the 36th St location, which will be opening very soon.

    Supercharger - Oklahoma City, OK - W Sheridan Ave

    On the other hand, if it was at Bricktown, it would likely be filled up by local Tesla owners spending an evening there. There’s advantages to remote locations. Especially on a Saturday evening after a Sooners game in Norman. And as long as I can get a corn dog and Cherry Limeade, it’s a big...

    Two EV’s in a 3 car garage

    Yeah. I think the BMW X5 is the best plug-in hybrid out there, but they’ve been criticized for their slow charging. (It’s a huge-by-plug-in-standards 24 kWh battery, so it deserved a better charger.) I’ve already got a wall connector which lines up perfectly with my car, so I won’t be changing...

    Two EV’s in a 3 car garage

    I’m looking for ideas of how to charge 2 EV’s in our garage. I’ve got a 2021 MS with a wall connector. Been working great through two MS’s for almost six years. My wife will soon be taking delivery of a 2022 BMW X5 45e PHEV. There’s a few obstacles to overcome to charge it every night in our...

    Any of you have 100/99 scores still not get any FSD till today?

    I don't understand what you mean to "opt out". Do I turn off all the FSD options or do I have to remove myself from the FSD queue altogether?

    Bike Rack Ground Clearance

    Thanks for the responses. My previous S had no active suspension. I'm about to order a new one (waiting for battery day). Is there a noticeable difference with the suspension elevated? Which leads to the next question...what does it do to range? Has anyone taken one on a long trip?

    Bike Rack Ground Clearance

    I've seen several threads where people have discussed the use of hitches and bike racks. The users seem to be pleased, but my concern is ground clearance, which I haven't heard anyone address. I have a Kuat NV 2.0 bike rack (for my other car) and was considering the EcoHitch for the Model S...

    Life on a 110 Outlet. My thoughts.

    I love my dual charger, as I’ll occasionally make a 200 mile trip and need a quick charge to get me around town for the evening. But this experience has definitely taught me I don’t need 80amps all the time. Is it possible that running 80 amps possibly led to the shortened life span for my...

    Life on a 110 Outlet. My thoughts.

    My HPWC died recently, just as a friend was taking delivery of a Model S. So I've had to wait over six weeks for a new (free) HPWC to arrive. I have a 30 mile commute plus errands in the evening, and I'll get 3-4 mph off the 110. My 90D now gives 251 miles at 90%. This has been way easier than...

    Will I Still Get 60 charge mph on the new HPWC?

    My original wall charger recently died, at almost exactly the same time that I earned a referral credit, and therefore a new HPWC. It's supposed to arrive tomorrow. I have a dual charger in my Model S, and was previously getting 60mph at 80 amps on the old unit. I know the new model only...

    Model S's in Tulsa Oklahoma

    I’m in Tulsa. What is your source on this?

    Supercharger - Plano, Texas

    This is especially important for those of us in Tulsa. Right now, I have to go through Oklahoma City to get to the Dallas area. This will get us from Tulsa to the DFW area in a 90D, although it will cut it close. When they put the Supercharger in Henryetta, OK, it will be two easy stops to get...

    Supercharger - Springfield, MO

    It still hasn't been pushed onto the navigation, at least not on my vehicle.

    Supercharger - Springfield, MO

    It is now active on the Tesla website with the typo "Superchager". Evan, is there an actual place to eat there? Sounds like Joplin and Rolla will be the dining spots, while Springfield will be the alcohol break. ;-)

    Supercharger - Springfield, MO

    Go for it. I did Tulsa to St. Louis two weeks ago, and I'm doing Tulsa to Indianapolis next week. Driving 60 for about two hours will get you to Rolla fine if the weather's still fair. I actually stopped at a destination charger and walked to McDonald's in Joplin for 30 minutes because I was...

    Supercharger - Rolla, MO

    I just drove this weekend from Tulsa to St. Louis and back. Autopilot worked perfectly the entire way. I charged to 100% at Rolla. I drove 55 from Rolla to Springfield and then 65 the rest of the way. I could have made it to the Catoosa Supercharger on a single charge, but I was ready for a...

    Supercharger - Springfield, MO

    Does anyone know if there's any progress on the entire MacaDoodle's retail complex that broke ground a few months back? I would assume that's the best metric we have of when the supercharger will start construction.

    Any updates? Have they even started on the MacaDoodle's yet?

    My weekly Wednesday afternoon check in. Laying in some rebar today. No one around at 3pm, but obviously some work since yesterday.

    Supercharger — Catoosa, OK - Near Tulsa, OK

    Went back with my Tesla. It is NOT yet operational. I waved down a security guard, who said the construction guys were finished, but they didn't know anything else. I didn't know to look for a transformer box outside the enclosure, but the enclosure was larger than what I've seen at other...

    Supercharger — Catoosa, OK - Near Tulsa, OK

    This thing looks done. Completely finished, no one around. I walked up to the charger and the adhesive is still on the handle switch, but I didn't bother to peel it off because I'M IN MY VOLVO! I'll drive the Model S here tonight to confirm it's operational, but I think you can mark this one...

    Supercharger - Springfield, MO

    Is there a reason this hasn't been updated to "under construction" on the map? Is the map behind, or was the news article only referring to a ceremonial groundbreaking?

    Supercharger — Catoosa, OK - Near Tulsa, OK

    Lambert's: Home of the Throwed Roll! I honestly don't know if they have shuttles, but it wouldn't surprise me given the size of the facility.

    Supercharger — Catoosa, OK - Near Tulsa, OK

    But they're not putting it at the front of the casino. It's on the far back side a hundred yards or so from the parking garage. I wasn't able to get that in the picture. Ten minutes to McDonald's unless you jog. All of it in their parking lot. By the way, I agree with you about the walking...

    Supercharger — Catoosa, OK - Near Tulsa, OK

    One problem, though, is it's not a convenient walk to anything. They definitely want you to head through a large parking lot into the casino. McDonald's and Waffle House would be a ten minute walk.

    Supercharger — Catoosa, OK - Near Tulsa, OK

    Earth is being moved. A half dozen employees are tearing up concrete. If the picture uploads, you can see large crates with a Tesla logo, presumably the supercharger stalls. There were four such crates. I asked a worker who just smiled and said, "I cannot talk to Tesla owners, sir." We both...

    Rage at a Supercharger Station

    I really could have done without specifying ethnicities. It did not help the story in any way. I'm reasonably certain that you are neither an "Asian" woman or an "Indian" woman, or you wouldn't have mentioned it. Next time, start the story with, "Two people who have nothing in common with me...

    Yep. And the net LOSS is the iPhone charger. And yet...I just might actually get it. I must be ill.

    New Center Console notice email

    First time post for me. I've ordered a 90D, it's arrived in Dallas and I plan to pick it up this weekend from Tulsa. I received the e-mail from Tesla, so I wrote them back with several questions, and just received this reply: "Hi Brute, Thank you for contacting Tesla Motors. Thank you for...
