Yep, and the founder of the company owns a Tesla, so it makes it easy for him on his compliance runs to charge up.Obviously Smithfields is seeing the value in hosting Superchargers (like Sheetz has) and is taking the lead on these. Excellent!
I don’t. Wallace is another 21 miles down 40. I would like us to get to a point where we have Superchargers at least every 25 miles in built up areas like the I-40/85 corridors from Raleigh to GSO/Winston/Charlotte, and every 50 miles at most on more remote stretches (like the Raleigh to Wilmington route, about 130 miles). Tesla needs to build a surplus of chargers now to stay ahead of the huge growth rate of new cars.The second attempt at a supercharger in Warsaw. I do think this is an odd choice considering Wallace exists and is not that far down 40.
You're in luck! There is a coming soon for the Garner, NC location (exit 306). I would guess at the White Oak Shopping Center either at the Sheetz Gas Station (although that parking lot is already very busy/tight) or somewhere in the Shopping center itself (Near Dick's sporting good? Cabela's parking lot?)I would also like to see a Supercharger at Exit 306 (Highway 70) or 312 (Highway 42). Those are the biggest interchanges between Raleigh and Wilmington. Those chargers would keep people from having to deal with the North Hills supercharger or diverting the 4 or 5 miles off of I-40 onto NC-540 toll to get to the Cary Supercharger.
Yeah, that's REALLY cool. Not sure if you have seen these articles before:I literally live 10 minutes away from Warsaw and just happened to catch the superchargers on the truck. Pretty cool how they are all connected into one slab of concrete!!
Exactly. It's 90-odd miles from Raleigh, NC to Wallace, NC, and over 100 miles from Cary and Durham, plus Wallace, NC is v2.I don’t. Wallace is another 21 miles down 40.

Each of the last 4 times I’ve been to Wallace I have been the 4th car charging. If one more car came one of us would end up power sharing. That really sucks when you have to share power, especially when you’re in a hurry. With the Wilmington Supercharger so far out of the way, and Wallace only having 8 150kW chargers, I’m glad to see more v3 chargers being built on this corridor to serve the huge numbers of travelers headed to the coast. This new charging station will let people coming from places like Greensboro, Winston Salem, or even Raleigh who are going to places like Oak Island, Carolina Beach, Ocean Isle, Sunset Beach, etc. one more alternate place to charge. We need all the chargers we can get, especially if Tesla follows through opening up chargers to all EVs.

Bar-B-Q does sound good.Yeah, that's REALLY cool. Not sure if you have seen these articles before:
Tesla rolls out clever prefab Supercharger model for faster installations
One of the best things about Tesla is that it never stays still. Even if something is already working, and even if the company is already enjoying a wide lead against its competitors, Tesla still tends to improve its operations. This was evident in the company’s ongoing Supercharger buildout...www.teslarati.comTesla News and Reviews | InsideEVs

It’s actually going to 312 at Smithfield’s. I just saw it and took photos and talked to the guys there working. They also confirmed where the one on I-95 is going between Rocky Mount and Richmond. It’s going at the Dunkin Donuts in Halifax. They also told me they haven’t heard anything about the Chapel Hill Supercharger, meaning it hasn’t even gone up for bid yet.You're in luck!

Supercharger - Garner, NC
Holy cow! I just saw another thread talking about updates to the supercharger map, and so I went to look for new upcoming sites in North Carolina. At first, I didn't think there were any... then I saw one listed in Garner for Q42021. I used to live in Garner in the late 90s/early 2000s. It...teslamotorsclub.com

No, but where they do have a footprint, they are going all in on providing an excuse for EV owners to visit one of their restaurants over the competition.~40 locations throughout eastern NC plus 1 in Charlotte, so they don't have the footprint of Sheetz......
