Gather up your rain gear (maybe) and join us for the Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening of the Ocean Shores Supercharger! This Saturday in Ocean Shores. Mention Tesla and get a room discount at the Canterbury Inn. Show off your car to the uninformed, the locals will be there to view the big...

Good news! As of today (Oct 10, 2023) Washington's newest Supercharger station is now in operation. The Tesla guys were there earlier today to do the final inspection and to energize the system. It's probably not showing up on your maps yet, but it's all working! So, make your plans for an...

And that's another reason to vote for Pullman in the Tesla Supercharger voting...

Things are progressing quite nicely. They should be pouring concrete in the next couple of days, then it's a three day rest before the installation continues. Looking like just a few weeks away. Once a date is set, get ready for an official grand opening where everyone will be invited!

That's the official word! It could also mean that any vehicle with a Tesla Charger hose can use it too.

Here's the current official status of the upcoming Supercharger station in progress in Ocean Shores. An excerpt from the last Ocean Shores City Council Meeting. The actual location will be in the parking lot directly West of the Ocean Shores Convention Center. Directly behind the long...

Yea, Aberdeen at night is sketchy, BUT much better than it used to be. There was a filthy porta potty on the property that the druggies used. Plans have been scrapped for a Welcome/Visitors Center across the street in the now vacant lot. So, best place for a restroom is the Rite Aid a block...

The host is the City of Ocean Shores. It's on adjacent property to the Ocean Shores Convention Center, on the backside of a private commercial building that has a number of retail stores. The visitor center is at a different location.

I have free supercharging on my 2015 MS, and I don't get the pricing info. So, tell me if the cost is .35 do you multiply that by time or what the car says its sucking in? But, it seems that the incoming power varies according to the charge.

At least there's no gas spill!

Am I able to transfer my reservation number to someone else?

Here's what my SOP would be if I were a local..... go into the garage shortly before closing, say about a half hour prior to closing.. Stay in the car, do my charge and then leave after the toll booth closes. It's like a safety thing that you can get OUT of a garage after hours.

I have the TeslaFi app. I LOVE it! My electricity is 8.5 cents per kwh from my PUD. The program does the math for me. So far with 864 home charges, it has cost me $402.33 total for probably 4 years. In January, I had 46 charges at home (it's plugged in all the time) added 168 kwh, and a...

I live in a rural coastal area that often gets some pretty nasty winter storms. The PUD power generally is pretty good, but when it does go out, its between a few hours and a few days. I would be thrilled if I could power my fridge, freezer and my 110 pellet stove.

The layout is the same as in Issaquah at the Fred Meyer parking lot. Everyone backs in and the number of Superchargers takes up less linear space. I passed thru Olympia yesterday, and would have used it had it been open!

I did that same thing on my 2015 Model S last fall. I must have done something wrong as it lost it's prime for about two weeks before it finally primed itself and started to work. True, it was a pretty easy job.

I went by this afternoon and a back hoe was there and they dug out a big ditch. Also, on the pavement, in spary paint was a couple of squares and the word "transformer" So that will be on the inside of the planter. The location is not where I had originally thought, right at the drug store...

No, I have the free version of TuneIn. But at least now I can instantly access all my saved stations and not have to do a frustrating search while I'm driving.

I have an external TuneIn account with a number of saved favorites divided into a number of different Tune In subdirectories: News, Local, Music, Oldies, Radio shows, etc. In each category I might have a half dozen or more favorites. Until I discovered this, I couldn't access all my Tune In...

I visited the location today. It is in the South Sound parking lot way out from the Target all the way to Slater-Kinney Road, between the Bank and the Rite Aide. All that has been done is some spray painting on the asphalt. The location appears to be right next to the Rite Aid Store and a...

Wow, things sure have changed! The last time I went there I was on my way to the Holiday Bowl. It was the day after Christmas, cold as all get out, there was no one there except for me, all the restaurants were closed, as I got there right around midnight. So, I plugged in to the...

My 2015 Model S was indeed prewired for the puddle lights and the door handle lights.

I went to the Tumwater SC for the first time a few days ago. GREAT LOCATION! I was ice'd out by a big pickup, but he came back in from the store with his lunch and was off. The Pilot convenience store is very nice! There's a McDonalds, a Subway, a Cinnabon as well as grocery store items. The...

I did a search from the One Call application on Google Maps. Long and Lat coordinates. 47.0426223, -122.8342446 Looks like the pin point will be right off Slater Kinney in the South Sound Parking Lot.

Perhaps next time these come on the ballot you might think about voting no.

I hate to report this, but the Kitchen Connections store at the Seaside Supercharger has totally vacated the premises, and there's no new location. I was so looking forward to picking up some kitchen supplies there. Good news is the public restrooms just past the teriyaki place is EXTREMELY clean!

I am SO looking forward to a day trip to Forks just for a lunch! ESPECIALLY since there's a number of restaurants within walking distance. It totally reminds me of my friends who used to have private small planes and would fly to airports just for the restaurant. I feel the same way about...

Same here. When I drove to San Diego and back last year, I was constantly in the California car pool lanes. And no CA or WA carpool sticker for me. I also figured that I would have been a very low priority for a CHP working the lanes. I especially liked to jump in right behind another Tesla...

You CAN drive in ANY carpool lane at any time in Washington in an EV. However, you MAY not.

I also replaced my this fall, just before the rain started. Like some others the new pump as spinning with nothing coming out. I thought I had properly primed it, but guess not. It took maybe two days of driving before the sloshing around primed it. It's been working fine since. I happened...

Ask the workers if they are staying the night in Forks! If yes, then no. If no, then yes!

If you are a land owner outside of the metro area, you can change your voter registration to your vacation home, within a day. Then register your car in that county. And get a post office box in McCleary, $50. a year.

KATU news: DUII suspect's car catches fire, burns EV charging station at Seaside Outlet Mall

Wow! That's insane. The TV ads are blatantly misleading.

I can make it to Pullman from Aberdeen with my MS 70. Fortunately, there a number of J-1772 chargers in Pullman. The hotel that has the destination charger is always full during football games. I cannot go roundtrip from RItzville without several hours in Pullman at a destination charger...

Perhaps before long, Pullman or Colfax will be targeted for a Supercharger.

I bought mine in Las Vegas from a private party. Flew there and drove it back home. I had to promise to mail him back the plates when I got it registered in Washington. Which I promptly did!

I know they're tight lipped, ask them where they are staying (are they local) and where do you go next?

Depends on what kind of mystery Tesla you have. You might just want to call the 800 number and get a second opinion from the parts department.

$69.70 US for the pair.

I just got sticker shock when I was first quoted at $60. I am very happy with the lights however. Probably most any body shop can do the work.

Well, I did have the puddle lights installed when my car was in the shop. I had ASSUMED that since they were into the door anyway, it would be just the light for the driver's door. NOT SO. They charged me the book rate for the door that was already disassembled and the passenger door that was...

Hwy 261 from RItzville to Washtucna is a knuckle grabber. There's hills and corners and autopilot looses it. So, you have to actually DRIVE the car. It's not a pleasant drive. Google maps says that route is 34 minutes. To go back to freeway 395 to Washtunca for the easier drive is about an...

Couple of things on the proposed Tumwater location. I went by there last week to see if there was any progress. Nothing going on at all. On the property is a McDonalds and a Pilot truck stop station with a travel convenience store. The property line goes a ways back and there's two rows...

I just got this note in my email: Good afternoon, Thank you for contacting Representative Chapman’s office. Senate Bill 5971 is dead this year. Thank you for your support Nora Halbert The Office of Representative Mike Chapman 24th Legislative District 360-786-1806

I've got a set of 21" staggered rims, tires, and sensors.

Have you been to the Connell charging station? It's 10 miles off HWY 26 coming in from Ellensburg, and then 10 miles back to the main room. So, on a J1772, that's an hour just to get the energy back from the detour. Is the Greenlots charger free? And what's the DCQC, is that the new state...

Does anyone know if RCW 46.08.185, the one that "for any person to park a vehicle in an electric vehicle charging station provided on public or private property if the vehicle is not connected to the charging equipment." Lets just say for a nearby special event or something. Especially if...

I did it in the dead of winter last year all along I-5. Had no snow over siskiyous, but very cold weather all thru Wash and Oregon. About Sacramento, I went thru a car wash to get the grime off and the rest of the trip to San Diego was warm and dry. I mostly slept in the car, either at or...

That's the same one that I have. I love it! Furthest drive: WA to San Diego and Back. Furthest single run: Aberdeen Supercharger to Ellensburg Supercharger nonstop.
