* I-35 mile markers follow I-35E, so I have included Italy, TX as being along I-35.
** From Waco, TX to Denton, TX the fastest route takes I-35W, so it's a large diversion if you stop in Italy, TX; however, Italy, TX is a very small diversion off I-35E itself.

The email updates from Tesla are pretty far behind, I guess, I just now got an email saying the Italy, TX supercharger was open.

I got the impression that was more like an occasional newsletter than a real time notification. Good for those who don't frequent these forums though.

As long it shows up in Tesla website and in car navigation system on time, I am good.

Not my car!

That pull-in pedestal (#1A) was leaning at about a 30 Deg angle into the parking space with scrape marks and such where something hit it when I stopped by yesterday (Monday, 3/12). No phone number on the pedestals and I got tired of holding on the Tesla number I called so I haven't reported it. I think it will still work but I made sure I wasn't on #1B when I charged.

The sonic is closed across the street. Only food options are McDonalds and Carl’s Jr

All quiet Little Italy. Only one charging saturday evening.

First time I stopped to eat a meal here. Texas Best Smokehouse across the street isn't bad at all. If you think or suspect otherwise, just remember this rule: gas station bbq in Texas is still better than any BBQ in South Carolina

Power out at at least 3 of the pedestals on Friday afternoon. One looks like it was backed into...

I reported this to Tesla last week, apparently they haven’t been out to fix it yet. 4A and 4B had no power, another one was knocked off the base, and 1A said “charging stopped” as soon as it started.

Noticed this model X today in Italy...

I think they need backup curb stops.

1A worked for me (If it's the drive in forward one)

In Puerto Rico, we called them "Sleeping Policemen"

There seems to be more and more businesses in the area with each stop.
