You're right! I'm surprised I haven't run across you at Wal-mart or Fareway or anywhere else in Orange City.
If you had the CHAdeMO adapter you could have used the DC fast charger at Sheldon's Fareway. With no Tesla SuperCharger option, the only thing is a Level 2 charger and PlugShare is a good place to see if there's a spot where you could drop off the car to get charged.
Here's one: PlugShare - Find Electric Vehicle Charging Locations Near You
If you stay long enough at your destination, you could just use the mobile adapter on wall outlet.

There's another Tesla vehicle owner in Sioux Center (besides myself) and two in Le Mars.
Wife is from LeMars but family moved away. I use 75 and 18 up to Spencer but typically day trips (I know, it sounds weird).
there’s a chademo adapter locally some owners share so I might just try and bring it. Is the Sheldon chademo on the BP Greenlots app network? ChargePoint is big down in our area but I’ve never used Greenlots.

Are you driving up from Kansas? If so, you could take I-29 to Highway 75/60 and then Hwy 18?
Yes, the Sheldon CHAdeMO is on the Greenlots app network. That's who MidAmerican Energy decided to work with when building out their DCFC coverage (DC Fast-Charging Network). I've used several of the Greenlots ones and I always got it going in the end.
If you needed to borrow a CHAdeMO you could borrow ours -- I live in Sioux Center and you could just swing through there to pick it up and drop it off on the way back.
Thanks! I will keep that in mind! My 2013 85 gets about 200mi on a 90% charge these days. It's the return trip from the soon to be Sioux City SC that worries me. Especially in winter months

That NW corner of Iowa is a desert for charging options. Hopefully that will change in the near future. Some restaurant or bar around Okoboji should install a Tesla destination charger at a minimum. I know you could drive up to catch either Worthington or Sherburn superchargers but that’s not the point. I’m scheduled to pass thru Sioux City 4x in May. Let’s get this supercharger lighted!
Metro electric was working on the cabinet this morning.
According to what I was told it should be up and running in just a couple weeks
