Another contact tells me Amarillo is getting a second supercharger, and this time it's a fabulous location. The "Toot N Totem" facility at I-40 and Lakeside.
This is on the east side of town and would compliment the one on the west side of town. Neither one is super convenient to I-27, but this is on Loop 335 so if you were heading on I-27 north from Lubbock you could take 335 while south of Amarillo, and take it up to this super charger, then get back on 335 north to merge back in with Hwy 287 to Dumas.
This one has two restaurants - A barbeque and a Wendys.
A playground
A dog park
A large travel oriented convenience store
Large clean bathrooms
IMO this would be on par with a Buc-ees , and better than the facilities at Henrietta and Alvarado.
It is very close to Rick Husband Amarillo Internation Airport, just one stop west of the airport exit.
I haven't been able to pull any TDLR or Amarillo permits, but construction is supposed to be 'imminent'.
I stopped by this morning, and there were two areas with marker flags out, but no digging. I asked at the checkout area, and they were unaware of a supercharger, but added "We are usually the last to know".
The existing circa 2015 Amarillo charger is V2, so if this one is a V3 it will be the preferred stop for east-west traffic on I40.
