Yeah, except I had my sister to visit on her birthday on the way in OKC.If you were going to take the Amarillo route, you should have done it in the downhill direction, not uphill.

Tesla in the past has pulled permits and a year later, we were still waiting for the SC to be built. I have driven from Central Texas to Denver in my Model S90D. In the summer time I had to slow down to make the jump from Amarillo to Trinidad. There is no way that I could make it in the winter time.the fact that there is *zero* movement on the Clayton supercharger is nuts. it's the *main corridor* between DFW metroplex with 7.5m people and Denver area with 3m people. Anyone going skiing in Colorado from North Texas will use that corridor. it should be a high priority for Tesla... Maybe the 350 miles+ rated Tesla's are fine year round to do Amarillo-Trinidad nonstop... but no way in hell you can risk it on a windy/ cold day with anything less range
Right after they finish the Supercharger on the international space station, they’ll give Kayenta some attention. Almost SIX years of “coming soon”!once they finish the superchargers in CA...the rest of the coastal states.... and the international stations, then they’ll give Clayton and maybe even Lubbock TX and Crawford NM some attention.
if you stop for 1.5 hours or more in Raton/Dalhart it is just faster to go to Las Vegas, NM.How many people though barely make it AND charged in Dalhart and/or Raton?
There's currently a job posting based in Austin to improve Supercharger infrastructure. I would imagine they are just short staffed at the moment.I’m sure once they finish the superchargers in CA...and FL, and NJ, and NC, PA, the rest of the coastal states.... and the international stations, then they’ll give Clayton and maybe even Lubbock TX and Crawford NM some attention.
It’s too bad that Tesla doesn’t make the urban superchargers commercially available. You could easily install two 72kw chargers on a 225amp 277/480 3 phase service almost anywhere, and it might be an easier sell to property owners and hosts. That would fill the gap in a lot of small towns. It would also give Tesla more usage data about where they need to build out the network, because as it is now not many will travel a particular route just because it’s impossible.
Out of Spec Motoring just did a road trip video going from Ft. Collins, CO to Dallas and back along this route and highlighted the lack of charging along this stretch. Had to go 40mph on the return route and even still barely made it in a M3 on a windy day.
What’s the reqs?There's currently a job posting based in Austin to improve Supercharger infrastructure. I would imagine they are just short staffed at the moment.
Does Tesla refuse to license their plug to other manufactures? It would be amazing if all those 25/50kW dual plug stations out there also had Tesla plugs...It’s too bad that Tesla doesn’t make the urban superchargers commercially available.
