Supercharger - Mobile, AL

Rain, rain,rain no progress. All that is needed I believe is to seal parking area new lines and parking stops. Just need sunshine.

Thanks for the update Ed, looks like there's a chance for some sunshine tomorrow (4/15) morning till about Noon. I hope they get out there early and knock it out quick!

Ugh, never mind:

The drying time of the sealer should be a minimum of eight hours. This will allow the sealant to cure. During this dry time there should be no traffic driving on the parking lot. The sealer should not be applied if the weather is rainy or wet. If there is anticipation of rain or wetness in the weather forecast within eight hours of the sealant, then the sealant should be postponed.

Current Mobile, AL weather conditions: Cloudy and 72F! :biggrin: It's not supposed to rain again until tomorrow morning!

I hope they're out there working hard on the parking lot!!!
Maybe the SuC team is also performing their sign-off today!

We'll be coming through Mobile next Wednesday (22nd) and I'm really hoping the site is up and operational!!

We just pulled into Benson's Appliance. Coming from San Antonio, yesterday. We stopped in Mobile at 10:30 this morning and there was absolutely nothing going on (sigh).

Just got back, still nothing.

I was just looking at the location on the map.

I know (because we do our yearly jaunt to Santa Rosa each summer) that the tunnel there gets backed up frequently.

if the SatNav says it is "red", I go up 65 then over 165 and 90 over the bridge.

This actually is a nicer placement for this than I initially thought.

Marcus let me charge. First one. He said you can charge but not officially open yet.

View attachment 78186Marcus let me charge. First one. He said you can charge but not officially open yet.

That is fantastic!!! Did he say anything about the official opening date? Did he have to do anything special for you to charge or are the ports all hot?

Thanks!!

 

[berryja]

They are all hot just watch out for the curbs they are not installed. He just left when I did. The contractor was still working on the curbs. No free jacket. But free charges for life.

Thanks for the post, is Marcus one of the contractors or is he with the Tesla SuperCharger team?

Marcus is with Tesla out of GA. He drove the loaner white one from Florida to test the supercharger.

Do the two dogs both fit in your S ?
We have a pair of Mastiffs and are trying to figure out if they can fit or not

We have one Golden Retriever. I use a dog hammock and door panel pads so she has the entire back seat.
I doubt very much a pair of Mastiffs are going to fit unless they are very friendly and like to lay on each other.

I thought it looked tight - can't really test it out by taking them to the local gallery
I did try to pretend, but that got some very odd stares!
