FWIW, here's a letter I recently sent to Tesla:

There have been some changes to the Supercharger planned locations map in the northeast -- changes that I think are out of touch with actual driving patterns in the region. And, there are still some important gaps
1. Sturbridge, MA. This site has been discussed in the press, so I was surprised to see it disappear. This point is far too important to abandon. No sane person drive from New York City to Boston via I-95; it is shorter and pleasanter to drive up I-91 to I-84 to I-90. In addition to facilitating this central NYC/Boston corridor, it also facilitates Springfield-Boston and Hartford-Boston. Please put this back!
2. Concord/Manchester NH. This point appears to have slipped over to Portsmouth NH. Portsmouth is a pretty good location, as many people head north at that point into ski areas, routes that would not be served by the Portland-area SC. But the Concord/Manchester SC had its own important role of opening access to the White Mountain region along I-93. I would keep this area on the 2015 map.
3. St. Johnsbury VT. While you've got a SC near Trois-Rivières, QC, there's no way for US drivers to get there except routing through Montreal. Going from West Lebanon to Trois-Rivières, there's a need for one more SC along the way. St. Johnsbury is the obvious place for it, coming as it does just north of the junction of I-89 and I-93. This SC would also be very helpful for New England skiers.
4. Bangor ME. Be mindful of the fact that most *commercial* traffic uses I-95, while most *tourist* traffic uses US-1. Going from Portland to Bar Harbor on US-1 takes 20 minutes longer but is 20 miles shorter, more scenic, and has excellent amenities along the way. It would make more sense for touring purposes to have the SC in Bucksport rather than Bangor.
On a slightly different topic, it's a shame that Tesla is completely ignoring the I-81 corridor from Maryland to Tennessee. Two SCs along that route, one near Staunton VA and a second near Wytheville VA, would add a lot of functionality to the SC network in this area, bridging big gaps between the Ohio Valley and the coast as well as opening this major NE--SW corridor.
Thanks for your consideration of these suggestions,
Sincerely,
