Supercharger - Asheville, NC

[Cyclone]

Uhhh Mayor - could you please do something about the rain also? Would hate for it to impede progress! Thanks in advance.

The rain didn't stop the Greenville, SC or Kingsland, GA crews from proceeding. I suspect it won't stop Asheville.

Something about rain plus high voltage might scare off Duke Energy workers when they come to wire up their transformer...

Edit: Unrelated, I hope this site gets a solar canopy... Asheville Plant -Duke Energy

Great pictures qblack1, er mayor. JHow did you manage to get the pictures side by side, top to bottom?

 

[RedRidr]

Thanks for the updates. We will be traveling to Ashville around the 13th of December. I hope they are up and running by then.

I have taken all of these with my iPhone and sent them as "medium" size. When they import, based on the size of the picture to automatically arrange.

 

[Buddyroe]

Woohoo. Tomorrow will be day 2 since the last update - expecting a new update and pics!

 

[MFrunkerOG]

^ what he said!

 

[drsrichardson]

We're all so patient. Not. Thanks, Mayor!

Ok people, relax. Settle in for a lull. Just went by and looks identical to last pic. Duke transformer still not installed. So no new pics because no discernible difference. I was hoping for more as well. I'll be away until this Wednesday so if anyone else wants to update, then I yield the office to them (only while I'm away.... No coups!!).

I just drove by tonight too and was sadly disappointed that it didn't look like any progress had been made. I figure since I don't have a Tesla yet, the least I can do is update the local community on here on progress and any other news that may or may not be upcoming :smile:

Maybe it's because of this?

Annoying waste of time click bait.

I laughed.

I laughed.

The wording of the previous two posts before it gave me flashbacks of the beginning of the Greenville debacle and I thought... lets put a little panic out there I couldn't help myself.

Yep, confirmed as funny. Just ask again next time as well, we'll set you straight.

Easy there Satan, there weren't any ads or seizure-inducing gifs.....

 

[MFrunkerOG]

In hindsight, mildly amusing

When I first read it, I wanted to beat someone

That was funny. I am very happy toward the progress of the Tesla Supercharger network the construction company's has done a job well done. I am very proud of it. In the next two year's from now, the majority of the construction sites of the Tesla Supercharger's should be close to completion toward the United States. I am personally saving up for the Tesla Model 3 vehicle. I took a selfie with the Tesla Supercharger at Columbia, Mo.

Thanks for the updates on Ashville SC

Citizens: Here is your dose of Asheville Supercharger hope for the day... 11/18/2015...
An onlooker said that they were waiting on the Duke transformer (see empty pad behind installed equipment)
Also, that "they" wanted to come out and "test" the system next week.
Not sure how soon it will be open, but seems like they are moving very fast!

I will be traveling to Ashville to visit the Biltmore Estate for the Christmas Lights display. I hope they are up and running by then.
