At most locations even drive through would get you a solid 30 minutes of charge.... Still good though haha!

When Wharton gets done I can see this charger being very popular.

Several of the Superchargers I've used have been near some kind of fast food. We either grab food first and then eat at the Supercharger, or plug in and walk to the fast food.

I'm still amazed that interstate restaurant chains like Cracker-barrel and Texas Roadhouse haven't started installing EV chargers in the back of their enormous parking lots.
 
Is this the first buccee's to get charger installed? Any links to buccee rollout as a group?
 
Here we go!

So, the 8 current ones are where the solid red line is, I wonder if another 4 or 8 will go where the dots are? The black line is where the trenching is located. No green box yet, I think the pad for it is there in the second pic above.

So, only 8 in this spot it is looking like. Green box is in, but no power from the pole yet. Everything else looks complete.
Im planning a trip Memorial day weekend, hoping one of these Buc-ee's sits near houston is open by then. Has anone seen a meter on the transformer yet? Seems like when the meter gets set the commisioning team is there soon after.
