    Tesla will soon be building a new Supercharger in Yakima, WA at 121 N Fair Ave, per a ticket recently submitted by Blackstone Construction. Looks like it will be in the parking lot of the Bob's Burgers.

    Merry Christmas!!

    This will make Rainier from Tri Cities area or anywhere on this side of the state far more comfortable for just about any version of the vehicle.

    This is excellent news!!! Finally!!

    I always stop by Bob's Burgers on my way to Oregon Raceway Park from Seattle, towing my car. This will be perfect once I can switch to a cybertruck to tow my car. Yay : )

    This will be very helpful for the Seattle to Boise/SLC route. From Seattle, Cle Elum is too close, Ellensburg is kind of small and crappy, Kennewick is a diversion, Pendleton is too far. Having this supercharger right off the freeway will be the perfect stop.

    Yes, been waiting for this one for years...I will be able to go from Portland to Wenatchee with one stop comfortably. This is also the right place to stop for many N/S routes.

    very much so. I have a friend with an older S85 that needs a new battery (~50kw left) and this will make the north trip a lot easier.

    I would like it a little easier to get to north bound (1.2 miles, and some back streets), but I will take it and will not complain. There is even a GetAir there you could exercise the kids at on a long trip. You can even make a very long Pullman-Yakima along backroads

    Yessssssssssssnakejazzz.

    Seattle to Walla Walla is really helped by this as well. Still will stop in Cle elum for coffee and snacks briefly but Yakima is the "correct" location to charge.

    I've been waiting for a Supercharger in Yakima since we got our Model 3. But given that the other two locations I've been hoping for have been in the permit stage for over 500 days and over 950 days, I'll believe this when it is in service.

    I was wondering the same thing. My guesses are Osoyoos and maybe Bellevue although Bellevue has been in "construction" for about a year, so that wouldn't technically be right.

    And 103 miles from the Dalles, OR Supercharger along I-84.

    From Portland along I-84 to US97 it is 188 miles. Another "correct" SC falls into place!

    There’s actually a pretty straightforward route that skips backstreets and most stop lights and stop signs.

    Yep, just saw that. I've been waiting for this for this for almost 2 years. Been wanting to go over the pass in the SR+. Can't wait.
