I got and email from Tesla service regarding this car show, Tesla will probably send up a representative. I plan on attending and thought I would throw it up here in case anyone missed it. I'm also curious who else is planning on attending. The show is free and you don't need to register...

Another set of "mobile" superchargers are going in at the Park Meadows Mall in Lonetree, CO. This thread is dedicated to the construction and progress of the Lonetree, CO location. The address to this location is 8401 Park Meadows Center Dr Lonetree, CO 80124. There is already a store at this...

As per this post Tesla Supercharger network - Page 396 the supercharger in St George Utah has been permitted and will be on North Bluff St by the Starbucks.

Can someone recommend an electrician in the Phoenix (specifically Scottsdale) area for a home outlet installation?

Over on the TM forums, Colorado Model S owner Rod Hoffman is organizing a weekend road trip to the Black Hills, slated for May 16-18, 2014. Here's the prospectus; contact Rod directly to sign up. ~~~~~~~~~ Dear Denver Area Tesla Enthusiasts, Now that the Tesla team (and their cars Thunder and...

I am looking forward to being able to travel from Colorado Springs, through Cheyenne, into Montana, though Eastern Washington and across to Seattle. It seems even the 2015 map excludes a SC around Casper in order to enable the trip through Wyoming. Has anyone heard anything about Casper...

Looks like the pair of red Teslas might be reaching the Four Corners area somewhere around early afternoon today. Google Maps shows about 11 hours from Hawthorne to Farmington, New Mexico, not counting recharge stops. They might be tempted to hypermile from Flagstaff or Holbrook up to Blanding...

(?) Looks like I-25 south may be next, perhaps Castle Rock and then Trinidad or thereabouts.... Then Sterling on I-76 and Burlington on I-70 east in 2015. Something south of Denver asap would be great.

Tesla's Supercharger Map for 2014 shows a location at or around Casa Grande. I believe there's a Carl's Jr on the outskirts of town, an outlet mall, and several nearby truck stops where a supercharger could be sited. Okay, Tesla Detectives, let's go to work to figure out the location . . . and...

I just got word of the location of the Green River, UT location. The supercharger is not currently under construction but should be soon and is at the John Wesley Powell Museum - 1765 E Main St Green River, UT 84525. Is anyone in the area to provide any pictures or updates? Thanks. Google Maps...

Wonder what people think about range and performance on this corridor. My estimate is that the westward path could be an issue, or at least people should be careful with range. Cheyenne to the I-25/I-70 turn is about 100 road miles with a 10% decline. In winter 34.0 KwH (?). Then west on...

There finally - Jan 2014 - is beginning to be some movement regarding a Supercharger in Wickenburg. A few posts have begun in other threads; here is a copy of one of my entries elsewhere; they concern a Town Committee meeting being held this evening 20 Jan, regarding placement of SpCs smack dab...

AZ EV Driver at gm-volt.com posted about a Tesla Supercharger item on the agenda at his town meeting. Tesla Supercharge Coming to My Little Town (Maybe) It's Monday 1/20/2014 (today!) at 5:30pm, so maybe interested parties could go there and schmooze and ask for restaurant recommendations...

Rumor out here in AZ is that Yuma will be a location for Supercharger in the fairly near future. In looking at Google Earth there appears to be a very likely candidate for the chargers...Yuma Palms Regional Center. Tons of parking, and all kinds of restaurants and stores. Anyone out there live...

Good news for Arizonans and Tesla this week: Rep. John Kavanagh has introduced a bill that would permit automobile manufacturers to sell their wares in AZ as long as it had no dealership within 60 miles. Guess towards whom that is directed! :) Bill: Format Document News report: Sale of...

Anyone in the Texas area (Dallas more specific) interested in purchasing 4 OEM 21s? I have a Signature and decided to go with a different look, size and tire. I had about 8,000 miles on the wheels. There are currently tires on the wheels, but two have very little tread left and the other two...

Good to see that Gila Bend is a work in progress.

I had earlier asked about a particular vendor in the area. Does anyone else have recommendations for anyone other than Speedshield? What product did you get and how was the service? Ballpark cost and how long to complete? Thanks.

There will be a gathering of SE Arizona Tesla owners on Sunday January 26th 1:30 at Starbucks on Ina at Oracle (639 W Ina Road Tucson, AZ). Hope to see you there. Andy

I have heard glowing reviews of Speedshield in Addison and the work done by Trey. Anyone willing to speak of their particular experience? Do they also do any paint correction before the Clear-bra? What about other products that may protect paint and body? About how long did it take to get an...

There has been a thread for the temporary Phoenix service center, but haven't yet found one for the new Scottsdale location that opened in October. Perhaps the mods can move that old thread here. i continue to be impressed with the work ethic and enthusiasm of the staff. Manager, Nick, and a...

MikeC had photos of Flagstaff rather than Holbrook, but the text has a time frame of mid-January for Flagstaff, Kingman, and HOLBROOK. This is the first time that I've seen a date associated the the Holbrook location (elsewhere posted to be located at another Carl's Jr.). We have friends going...

Due to the heavy number of superchargers in Utah either under construction or proposed, I believe a centralized thread is necessary to track their progress. Please post any updates and pictures here.

. . . actually we plan to DRIVE from Phoenix to the Quartzsite SuperCharger at Carl's Jr and hope to meet at 9:30 a.m. at the Costco at 10000 W. McDowell Road in Avondale. Let's connect at the NorthEast corner of the Costco lot, get some pix, and depart about 9:45. A few facts: When...

Has anyone charged up at the Grand Canyon lodge trailer village RV park, or elsewhere at the south rim? Or in Tusayan?

So, I know that most transponders for tollways are supposed to work better in the little black dotted area by the rear view mirror. But the little tag for e470 in Denver is supposed to be in the lower left windshield according to their officials. Of course I have discovered it doesn't work...

My wife and I have determined that our next car will quite probably be a Tesla S. However, this is just from reading, studying and hearing word of mouth. If you lived in Utah and wanted to take a Tesla S for a test drive, where is the closest location to find one? We almost rented one the...

Yesterday, I drove form Dallas to Houston and back in under 13 hours in my S85. Here’s how it went: 7:20am - left home with 255mi range charge 8:26am – arrived in Corsicana SC (68mi) with 155mi left – ate breakfast at Whataburger 8:49am – departed with 215mi range 10:31am – arrived at...

A couple months ago I noticed a substantial gash in my driver's side back door. I'm pretty sure it happened in my former employer's parking garage based on the angle of impact, and that it ground through to the bare aluminum. Of course, the offending party failed to leave a note (that's a...

I was at the grand Opening at Quartzside AZ. it looked like 20 model s where there.

We need a Roadster owner volunteer in the Denver area. As many of you know, the cross brace "bump" in front of the seats is subject to wear and gets dirty. The stock floor mats don't cover this. Carpets / Floor Mats The Honda S2000 has a similar cross brace in front of the seats. I have mats...

A friendly cashier at Five Guys yesterday told me she sees four or so Model S's at the car meet there. We'd love to show up with Joules - are not sure of the protocol for this, time, etc. We are thinking of heading into town tonight (Sat. 2 Nov)....

I have P85+ with the silver wheels. 3000 miles. No curb rash at all. Would anyone like to trade me their darker grey rims (with or without tires) in exchange for my silver? Want to go with little different look. Like the combination of darker rims with the tint that I am going to apply...

I am organizing military vets that have Teslas for the Austin Veterans Day Parade. If you are or know one not on the forum let me know.

I am in the midst of finalizing a loan for a portion of my Model S, due for a Nov 16 delivery. I am being told it will cost $1,195.57 for title and registration, and another $5,735.52 for State Sales Tax. The tax number is what I expected (5.6%) but I was expecting a number for registration...

Please post whatever we know (or think we know) about Superchargers within or near Arizona.

My wife and I are headed up to Dallas for the TX/OU game and are bringing our Model S. After the game we are going to visit her family in Granbury before heading back to Austin on Sunday. I hoped to charge somewhere in the Dallas area this evening, but can't find many Chargepoint chargers up in...
