Supercharger - Miles City, MT

[sdoorex]

That would be a strange route to get from Denver to Williston. Maybe you are in the wrong thread?

Miles City isn’t out of the way of Denver to Williston. I went that way a few times with my parents when we were heading up there instead of taking 85 the whole way. In fact, if Tesla builds a supercharger in Douglas then going up via 25 to 59 to 94 to 16 through Gillette and Broadus is quite convenient with a stop in Miles City.

Even with an ICE vehicle, I usually go through Gillette and Miles City to get to Williston. It's a little bit faster than the US-85 route. On 85, there aren't any chargers (of any type) north of Spearfish, aside from a level 2 charger at a hotel in Watford City, which is still too far. I stopped taking 85 about ten years ago because it's impossible to avoid rock chips with the constant truck traffic and perpetual road construction.

My bad. For some reason I was confusing Miles City with Great Falls or Shelby. Was thinking it was on I-15!

Hardware now going in in Dickenson and Bismark. Soon they will have 3 of them to activate.

Right, perhaps they are waiting to do a run down the line...........

What's it called when you are ICED by a pig truck? PICED, TICED, PTICED? Still no transformer as of 3/17/20............

The electric crew was on site today doing some finish work. No pictures today but they were working on the switch boxes or whatever they're called. I'm too tired just now to look at my other post where I had delineated the basic structure. They also added parking bumpers in front of the charging stands and asked me to park for a fake charge to test plug reach, all good. At this point, I know the crew by name. They had no idea about the timing of transformer installation but added that regardless, Tesla has to show up as the final step to turn it on..........next update on Sunday, assuming we survive the viral apocalypse..........

Been watching this location and hoping for awhile.... but getting to... - if this country doesn't get it's act together will probably cancel the July trip I planned for two years. If nothing else, I will save a lot of money.

I really am expecting this any day now, or week, or month........

If any of you watch these want to join the groups on Facebook for Tesla owners to collaborate and give updates/event listings etc. Please do. There is a sizable ND Tesla Owners Group and a very small MT group that it would be awesome to see become active!

First post long time reader. I ditto can't wait for Miles City and Glendive to come on line. I have doctors appointments I would like to make before covid-19 shuts us completely down.

The transformer for Miles City is installed, all that remains is to set the meter and turn on the juice........
