My brother and I went to Ocean Shores to check out the wind and waves today. Stopped by the Supercharger on the way through. Everything looks finished but the transformer isn’t humming and I didn’t see a meter, nor any place for a meter to go.

Good news! As of today (Oct 10, 2023) Washington's newest Supercharger station is now in operation. The Tesla guys were there earlier today to do the final inspection and to energize the system. It's probably not showing up on your maps yet, but it's all working! So, make your plans for an official gathering and Grand Opening Celebration. Scheduled for Saturday, Oct 21. Time TBD, but I've heard noon. I'll post an update with all the details. There will be two Grand Openings that day, the Tesla Supercharger, and then go across the street to a Grand Opening of the High Dunes Trail. The Canterbury Inn in Ocean Shores will be offering special rates for the weekend, 10% off when you mention the Tesla event!
$0.44 kWh so about 15 cents a mile without the trailer. A trailer, no matter how light or short will add to drag significantly. I don't have experience with trailers so you should search other threads for info on that.What is the cost of charging at this new supercharger location? We are buying a Model Y soon and visiting for a month in summer from Phoenix but I am still unsure whether to take my 4Runner and pay 5$/gallon at 17 mpg or try to tow our super lightweight trailer (which will tug in behind easily, no "air break") with a long range Y. Still trying to figure out the charging costs (unless Tesla gives back promo supercharging in May).

If you are staying at RV parks with your trailer, you should also be able to charge for no extra cost there. Not sure where you can see all SC prices but they do vary a lot. I just went from Flagstaff to Seattle through California and rates varied from .24 to .44 cents but typically in the mid 30’s.What is the cost of charging at this new supercharger location?

Towing with the Y will almost certainly be cheaper, especially if you snag some free slow charging along the way at hotels, but might be a pain. Plan on stopping every 100-150 miles to charge. A trailer, even a light one, really kills your range (it’s more about frontal area than mass, especially at highway speeds).What is the cost of charging at this new supercharger location?

It's in the Tesla app. Go to location which should pop up a map, move the map to wherever your interested and turn on the view chargers button (yellow circle) on the map. Click on the charger you're interested in and all the details are there.Thank you! Generally, how can I find info on supercharging costs? I am able to use the Tesla app w/o yet owning an EV but it only shows chargers in range of my location...I tried to google things, used CoPilot, Plug share, very frustrating not to know. Do you know what I could expect along the I-5 in California and Oregon? Thanks again!

You have to scroll around on the screen to move the location away from where you are. 2 finger pinch to zoom out then hold down one finger and swipe around to move the map around to where you are going and click on the charger you want to see pricing. Then click X to go back to the map.Thanks for the effort. Maybe me or maybe the app but for all my efforts I keep only seeing chargers in reach from where I am now with no option to change that. Gotta ask one of the kids for help with the app!
