How long is a permit valid for? Should F.S. be taken off the permit status from supercharge.info if it has expired?
So I’m wondering If _________ will be completed before fort Stockton, or worse, the entire ______ is completed before I-10. Any bets?
It's like a reeeeeeally slow morphine dripWhat suspence? Its been pretty steady - no SC activity.
Can't say I'm thrilled with it either, but to be fair, they're more in communication with buyers than any other manufacturer I'm aware of. Best part of the dealership model (from their perspective) is it completely insulates the manufacturers from the customers.I will never understand the intentional lack of communication between Tesla and Tesla owners.
PLUS EV: yes, too slow - pain not mitigated in any way.
Is there no accountability within Tesla for the Fort Stockton fiasco?
With my old P85 each trip through the area cost me about 3 hours of my life.
Forced to take the Jeep most trips, starting in early 2014. After 4 years I decided to punt and buy the bigger battery.
With the new 100D it only costs me about 30 minutes per trip - plus the $110,000 of course
I will never understand the intentional lack of communication between Tesla and Tesla owners.
Even if it comes straight from Elon, it is bad policy. It hurts sales and it certainly doesn't build confidence in Tesla.
get some carry out with a cold beer and have a 2 hr meal while charging.The Fort Stockton RV Park is the solution people use for the lack of a supercharger here? I was thinking of renting a spot in the RV Park for the night then walking a mile or so to a hotel. Any better ideas?
Haven’t been through the area so don’t know it personally, but -PLUS EV: yes, too slow - pain not mitigated in any way.

Interesting, no doubt it's the biggest glaring weakness in my view.... but even I tend to think of this supercharger in terms of hauling ass.....most likely to New Mexico versus going up through Lubbock..... I'm willing to hypermile and do other unwise things, but I really don't want to hypermile on interstate. Anyway, I see that stretch and think, ok, uphill against wind, rain, etc. I could do it most likely, but it would suck and I no longer want to drive until there is less than 6 miles remaining. When I think of going to Marfa, I think of making it to the Destination charger over night. I've never considered the idea of making detours until you mentioned it, which it dawned on me.... there is a whole lot I want to see out there. Alpine, Marfa, Marathon, (I'll skip Pecos), Terilingua.... Yep, we need Ft. Stockton ASAPbuttershrimp: yes, heading west I need 100%. Last trip I stopped at 97% and arrived in Fort Davis with 35 miles left on a 100 battery.
That's not enough margin to handle a detour out here.
If you plan to drive from Fort Stockton to Fort Davis via Alpine and there is an accident, a fire, or a flood you will likely be stranded on Highway 67 - and without cell phone coverage. I don't think anyone at Tesla understands this.
