    Since no one ever checked it out and 2 inspections have been performed, I think it's safe to say it's under construction

    View attachment 627907 View attachment 627905 View attachment 627907 View attachment 627907 View attachment 627909 No need for road trip Raleel...live in “Yakivegas” a little more than 5 miles away and have been driving by site for several days...ground broke on Monday, the 11th.
    8 stall including one drive up between two hotels...Marriott Fairfield and Ledgestone (slightly closer and in background) utilizing back 8 of 9 spaces parallel to back edges of hotels, as seen in Google Maps. 7 backup spaces face Bob’s Burger and Brew. Target is a few minutes walk.....visualization of future Tesla Superchargers will be easy to see heading southbound on I-82 as you exit. Both directions will have easy access with 1 to 3 traffic lights (southbound easier).
    US 12/97 you’ll want to be in left lane as you intersect with I-82 with direction towards “Richland” and take first exit off I-82. I hope this is specific enough...finally will be here after seeing it listed since 2018...good location to decrease gaps between Superchargers in any road trip direction.
    I have enjoyed round trips to White Pass or Mt. Rainier Paradise with my 100D X over the years.

    I always stop by Bob's Burger when I tow my car on my way to Oregon Raceway Park from Seattle area. The location couldn't be any better for me. Looking forward to the release of cybertruck, so I can 'use it', too.

    Looks like Tesla's target opening dates are more precise, now. Osoyoos, BC shows just around the corner (Q2 2021). If that one opens up, too, all my towing routes will be covered : )

    We live in Moses Lake, WA, and my wife's best friend is in Kelowna, BC. Whenever the border opens up again, the Supercharger in Osoyoos, BC would be helpful.

    We'll be moving to the Green Bay, WI area, and have many friends in Ottawa, ON. When we drove an ICE vehicle, we did this trip via Sault Ste Marie. The supposed Escanaba, MI Supercharger will really help.

    I hope the spaces are generous for Cybertrucks. If they open a Service Center in Yakima, Cybertruck will be a popular vehicle in Yakima.

    I've always found the stalls generous enough for my Model X, and the cyber truck appears to be about 1" wider.

    It's only one inch wider? Or do you mean one foot?

    Correct me if I am wrong but I have the Tesla Model X width as 89.4” but that includes side mirrors, so maybe I am comparing Apples vs. Oranges?

    You are right about the side mirrors but the image for the cybertruck shows the tires being wider than what it looks like side mirrors would be.
    Here is the corresponding Model X diagram:

    Interesting. It's a lot more narrow than I realized. In any case, it will still be tough to parallel park on Capitol Hill :)

    These width numbers are not apples to apples. You can't compare mirrors folded to no mirrors. The Model S numbers are with mirrors folded. The Cybertruck numbers (without mirrors) are the same as an F-150. Door size is another important factor.

    Our Model S is 4" wider than our XC 90. The XC 90 is much easier to pull into the garage and park.

    If you are like me, you avoid parking your shiny Tesla next to any large vehicle. Especially if the one next to you is bullet proof and doesn't have to worry about door dings;)

    I think a major concern will be less about charging stall width and more about lack of pull through spots at SCs. I'm starting to see more and more Tesla's towing or with bike racks, that's only going to increase with the cybertruck releasing. Having a single pull through stall, especially since that single stall is often taken by drivers who don't feel like backing in, will be a major congestion problem.
