because it would be wrong for 95% of Tesla owners regardless of how good it would be, also everyone would complain about it here
Looks like Audi thinks it's a good idea
Audi Takes On The Urban Electric Scooter Trend With The E-Tron Scooter
FYI...I was passing through about 8pm this afternoon. Here’s a few pics of what the site looks like.Attachments

I just stopped here and have a number of pix that are about the same as @DFoley took, which I won't post.
As I suspected earlier, they took out part of the dog park/exercise area for the cabinets. I wouldn't want to be the guys digging in that ground.
The power transformer is there, with no meter present. Maybe it's just me, but I'm a bit amused that the big sticker on the side says "Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative", and across the street is the office for "Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative". I'm sure this Supercharger site will get lots of free inspections.

TexasEV - As I stated, I could not find the reference again, but I had read an article (and it wasn't long ago) that mentioned back and forth between Tesla or Tesla owners and Buccees to which they stated they were for the idea of having chargers, now I don't know if each store is owned by different individuals like other gas station chains, that could put a wrench in the process...
Feel free to discount my unsupported claim, but I explained that up front and I have no reason to lie about what I've read.

Looks the same today as previous pictures. There was a worker’s truck on site today.

Very difficult to make an educated guess when all equipment is onsite and impossible with this pedestal shortage Tesla seems to be going through...
This is just a guess, but I have been following these supercharger threads for 3 years now. I'll say 50/50. I'm operating under the assumption that they are going to want to fix this pedestal shortage before it gets cold (up north), and once they do, it will be up to the contractors to see how long it takes them to get back to each construction site. Likely depends on what else they are working on because surely they aren't sitting around waiting for Tesla to build the pedestals.
One possible negative for Texas is the northern locations could get priority for the pedestals, so they could get shipped up there first.
This. Really hoping it opens this season so round trip from Austin is possible in S75D
Just curious: Round trip where to where and back? I often drive around the Houston/San Antonio/Austin areas and I personally haven't had a problem in an S70.
I am looking forward to this one, though. I could go between Giddings and Junction without absolutely needing to stop in Austin.
texas Ren fest is in Todd’s Mission. 145miles through supercharger desert. That is, until Giddings opens
