All, yesterday (5/25/17) on TalkingTesla, a listener wrote in that Tesla had a Supercharger under construction at the Embassy Suites in McAllen, Texas. Does anyone live close enough to that area to check it out?

I have an uncle that lives in McAllen that could likely stop by. Is there just one Embassy Suites, the one at the convention center? Did the podcast say where the chargers were?
Falfurrias would be visited instead of Kingsville, shortening the trip by about 30 miles, but no real affect on range anxiety. Maybe you mean range anxiety because you want to skip Kingsville and go straight from Three Rivers to McAllen? That's 171 miles.This is awesome!!!! I am considering purchasing a Tesla within the next year and my family lives in McAllen, TX. I live in Austin so the SC's I'd have to currently take would be San Marcos, Three Rivers, and Kingsville before taking the drive from Kingsville to McAllen. I've seen in another post that Falfurias is also getting one so range anxiety will be much less of a concern. Has anyone here made the trip to McAllen before? How was the charging experience?

I do not have a Tesla to confirm how the charging situation is but with gas cars with a little bit larger range can make it on one tank of gas to Austin with quarter tank to spare, should mean one quick stop at the Love's in Three Rivers is more than enough to make it either way.
The permit says that the value is only $75k, so would that mean this is only a 4 stall site?
McAllen Supercharger is looking like it is almost done!View attachment 231191 View attachment 231194 View attachment 231195
Thanks for posting updates on the super charger!!! I’m super excited about this. Does anyone know if the construction for the Falfurias Super Charger has been started yet?
