My big concern is that they have been "ready" for over a year now...why are we just now starting to see a few stations pop up at Circle K's?From February 2021:

Looking forward to this good South Texas addition which will also help on drive from Laredo to Corpus Christi
Oh yes - yesterday, the limit of my Model Y LR was "stretched."This has been needed for a long time since the drive from George West to Edinburg/McAllen stretches the limit of many shorter range Teslas
perhaps the reason why wind power was supplementing the grid very nicely yesterdaythe wind was howling out of the SE, as it had been all across Texas
Texans are cranking on the air conditioning this week amid an unusually early heat wave, setting new records for electricity demand in the state, which surpassed 75 gigawatts on Sunday and smashed the 2019 record. Texas grid operator ERCOT projects it could approach that peak again on Tuesday.
But unlike previous extreme weather events in Texas which led to deadly blackouts, the grid is holding up remarkably well this week. Several experts told CNN that it's owed in large part to strong performances from wind and solar, which generated 27 gigawatts of electricity during Sunday's peak demand -- close to 40% of the total needed.
Wow! Thanx for this. The turbines were spinning fast all through West Texas.perhaps the reason why wind power was supplementing the grid very nicely yesterday

Let's hear more about this Denver CO to McAllen TX Tesla road trip...Oh yes - yesterday, the limit of my Model Y LR was "stretched."
On the return trip from Denver, the wind was howling out of the SE, as it had been all across Texas. My weather app said it was 25mph in Three Rivers, with gusts to 35. This was probably conservative.
I charged all the way to 100% (I hardly ever do that) and drove at 70 mph - but the nav kept telling me I would arrive home in McAllen with 5% - and that was too close for me, especially since I had wife, daughter and grand daughter with me. I had to give up and detour to Kingsville - which added a lot more time to the trip home.
Could have used the Alice site.
Good news for us! Three Rivers is a long haul from the RGV.New permit for Supercharger in Alice TX at 700 E. Front St (Circle K) -

Okay - not much to say. We had a full load with the wife, younger daughter and 8 year old granddaughter, visiting my brother and his wife.Let's hear more about this Denver CO to McAllen TX Tesla road trip...
Oh yes - I am used to that on the McAllen-Three Rivers run. Always have lots of juice left upon arrival.Did the wind help you on the other direction?
