Jeez, over 17 million shares turned over. Can anyone tell if the buyers were shorts covering or longs buying?

A couple of weeks back going out to Marfa I fell in behind an eighteen wheeler west of Ozona going about seventy-five MPH and drafted him off and on to Fort Stockton. The hwy was clear and little traffic, I felt pretty secure. As we entered FS I let him pull ahead and another eighteen wheeler...

Austindude: Suggestion. Have your friend install a 50 Amp. breaker and a NEMA 14-50 receptacle then you can charge there.

Austindude: Supercharge at Junction. Supercharge at Ozona. Charge at Ira's "Iraan Energy House" in Iraan (level 2) so it might take a little time. Then it's only 130 miles to Alpine. Charge at The Stable in Alpine just enough to get to Marfa, with a little buffer. Charge at El Cosmico in...

West Texas Tesla Rendezvous: Sounds great. Count me in!

charliepmayer, Good tips on Alpine! In Marfa. We ate a falafel lunch at The Food Shark trailer, Good. Lunch at Waterstop. Better. And best of all supper at Stellina. Stellina was so good we ate there twice. World class! Stayed Friday night at The Thunderbird, Cosmico was full and we didn't...

drew2017: MS 85D June 2015 build Charged in Ozona for an hour and left with a 96% charge. Bucking a side-head wind we burned 367 Wh/mi. about the worst power consumption of the trip. Arrived Alpine with 9% left Charged at Alpine at the 240/40 NEMA for one hour and twenty minutes. Walked three...

Charging in Alpine Made a trip from Austin to Marfa last week. Stayed in a trailer at El Cosmico. They have two Tesla destination chargers and a Clipper Creek as noted on Plugshare. Good trip. Alpine Just wanted to add that the two NEMA 14-50s are accessible and available 24-7 at The...

Charliepmayer: Thanks for checking out the Flying G. Looked pretty austere on the web site and now it's verified. When I showed the Fort Stockton options to my wife her comment was "we're going through Midland". Thanks again!

This may be a decent stop-over in Fort Stockton. I have not tried this yet but have spoken to the management a couple of times. Will give this a try on my next road trip out west. If someone gives this a go in the meantime please let me know if it seems do-able. Flying G RV Park 3601 W...

This may be of use. In Fort Stockton the Flying G RV Park 3601 Dickerson Blvd has 16 spaces with 50 Amp service. 432 290 8298. $20.00. Call ahead. The mgt. said they do fill up. 10 spaces were taken yesterday. Right next door. The Sleep Inn has rooms for $96.00 up if you book on web...

It's a gas main. Some activity at the SC. The meter is hot, showing all zeros.

It's not "hot" yet. I'm not sure of the formalities but Tesla or Austin Energy has to ok it and turn it on.

The meter is in!

The electrical contractor was at the site this morning installing the meter can. Talked with him for a minute, nice guy, does a lot of work for Tesla. Shouldn't be long now.

PROGRESS. Drove by the site today and Austin Energy has installed the drop from the pole.

Here are a couple of images of the Austin super charger as of Friday afternoon August 25 th. All the Tesla work appears to be complete but no transformer or meter as yet. Note the Clipper Creek pedestal on the right (south end). That's a first as far as I know.

AndrewTX, I did not see any transformer activity. I think I got bad info about the transformer install. I got that info from another tesla owner and now I think he was confused. Mea Culpa for passing along what now appears to be a rumor, or at least a misunderstanding. Lots of other 'punch...

I seriously doubt it. Still lots of details.

Austin Energy is scheduled to install the transformer tomorrow. I ran into the contractor that is responsible for setting the meter a week of so back and he said that he would wait until Austin Energy had installed their transformer to set the meter. They generally move pretty quickly once they...

Stopped by the Austin Supercharger site about 10:30 this morning. A two man crew out of Utah was pulling the electric cables. Shouldn't be long now.
