I tend to go by there a couple of times a week (well diverting to there from Wichita Falls). I will keep checking. I did try plugging in last time I was there (Wed evening). I open the charge door, get the green T, plug it in and the port locks and the T just turns black and the screen says waiting. I press the button on the cord and it unlocks the port. It will probably be Monday when I check again.
And I can confirm as of this morning they are not working.

But if you are the one rolling up checking...the tell tale sign from a far in dim/or no light is the lit red TESLA lettering atop the pedestals. Or backup to a pedestal and press the button on charging handle. If the charge port opens, its active.
I did charge today at 5pm. Seems to be all up and running.

Wow. Really? Just in time for my trip to NM in couple of days.

I’m guessing from looking at PlugShare the Amarillo to Trinidad run going west uses more range than it first appears on paper, due to the Raton pass uphill portion? Need to make this run soon. Looking at a couple Nema 14-50 options in between for maybe an hour top off. Anyone with real world numbers to help? It shows 225 miles I’m only at 237 full. I don’t mind driving a a bit under the speed limit to make it easier.
I make the Childress supercharger which is 214 just by slowing down a bit. But the uphill to Trinidad will stress me out

My 2015 S85D shows 269 miles on a full charge. I would not be comfortable driving that stretch. There is a thread on the Amarillo to Trinidad drive and has recommendations for NEMA 14-50 locations. Seems there is an RV camp in Ratón that is EV friendly.

In my Model 3 LR RWD with 19’s, I make it to Trinidad just fine going the speed limit. That’s in the summer. Haven’t gone that direction when I need the heater on

Thank you. I’ll check the linked thread for some details. I guess it’s only an issue if I want to make it in a day from the Fort Worth to Denver area.
Might be much less stressful to to just camp and rest at one of the RV locations between Amarillo and Trinidad. Wake up refreshed with a 100% and be on my way.
This car has made me a much more patient and happy driver not always having to GET there so fast. Or maybe I’m just older and wiser.....hard to tell

Sad that Tesla cannot update their website with accurate information. As of today, Sunday October 6, almost 11AM central time...
