Those beige containers seem to be the color of choice for Tesla parts and pieces. What a nice clean black Tesla in the last shot.

Stopped by today and they seemed to have mad a lot of progress. Probably just waiting on the utility to run the service lines and then inspection(?) before they are ready to go.

I saw them from the highway as I drove by yesterday, but had already passed the exit. Nice pics!

This is me on PlugShare. Am I correct that this shipping container is Tesla equipment? I've seen them in a couple locations (Buc-ee's) and they're unmarked but placed where I'd expect a SuC. I'll keep an eye out for them if that's in fact what they are.

Looks like the main transformer is being installed tody.

 

[GOATMaster]

Nice. I will swing by after work and see what's happening. These are v3 right? I don't see a silver ring

 

[heirway53@gkce]

I didn't get us close but I am almost positive these are v3. Smaller and thinner cable.
