This location will be a great help in closing the gap while traveling I40E to I55N. It will be about 195 miles to Miner, MO, while it was a risky 270 mile drive to try to make it to Miner from Little Rock.

Yeah, that is the exact route, via Uni of Arkansas, that I took that my car shut-down at exactly 0 miles in the battery. We really need this site.

OMG! On my next trip to Dallas I can bypass Memphis!! Yay!!!!! Getting to that supercharger has always been a gigantic PITA.

Superchargers are not operational yet. Called one of the store in the shopping center, and the person said there is a tarp over one of the cabinets.

I'd love to do that, but the problem is that no matter how I plan my travel, I always hit Memphis during rush hour. I like to get through there as quickly as possible.The Memphis location is definitely not convenient to travel but it is convenient to several restaurants which is nice. You just have to time your hunger accordingly
Bass Pro Shops would be a great location. The only problem I think I have with that is having to move the car to avoid idle fees - you know we'd all spend too much time in the store!
I drove from Conway over to Brinkley today. What's the hold up on this, seriously? Same for Van Buren, from the pictures I've seen in that thread. Is there anything that Tesla owners can do to encourage getting these things turned on? I didn't even bother plugging in with the covers still on the boxes.

This is super!!
We frequently travel from Texarkana, TX to Tupelo, MS.
Brinkley means we only have to recharge once, rather than twice (Little Rock and Memphis)!
Plus it’s 250kw rather than 150kw at both LRock and Mem.
win win!

Just called the AT&T store in that Shopping Center, and talked to store manager.
She said: “Yes it is operating. Brinkley is very small and there are no Tesla owners here, but it is operating.”
Sounded like she’s had to answer other calls about it.

The photos that @LoudMusic took today show the covers are still on the cabinets. I seriously doubt they are operating.
I didn't even bother plugging in. We'll be driving past there in a few weeks and I'll stop again and test.
I don't think anyone in Brinkley has any real information on it. It's entirely between Tesla and the power company.

We live just north of the Pyramid on Mud Island.
Great photos, we'll hopefully be twinning in our Model Y later this year.
