The MT dot is on Billings, which is logical since it's at the junction of I-90 and I-94. The I-90 corridor is pretty well ironed out if the 2014 dots are to be believed: Coeur d'Alene, Missoula, Butte, Big Timber, Billings, Hardin, Sheridan, Gillette
The BC one is definitely Hope, which may be ready to begin construction soon.
The "MD DC suburbs" one looks to be up near Baltimore. An obvious spot, given Tesla's other locations, would be the Arundel Mills mall in Hanover, MD, just south of BWI airport.

The new Coming Soon dots inspired a search through the Oregon Building Permits database which shows that a new supercharger was permitted July 7th at Cousin's Restaurant/Inn, 2114 W 6th Street, The Dalles, Oregon. A new thread for this supercharger is here.
>> I think the top media markets aren't really relevant. What are much more relevant to Tesla's vision (IMNSHO) are traffic patterns. How heavily are routes traveled? [dirkhh]
The 2nd cross-country route can be achieved by building an SC north of KC on US36, another SC further east at Hannibal MO, and a 3rd between Champaign/Urbana and Indianapolis. This would take advantage of the existing SC at Normal IL. This 2nd X-country route will become the Route of Choice for most coast to coast travelers as it is short and avoids urban impact.
The point being made here is NOT to simply follow existing traffic density flow but to draw motorists to the more efficient route. TM would be saying: THIS is the best route. Forget we did that other route, sorry about that :redface:.

This was a screen I took on 5/20 because they had a bug that I reported. Don't mind the blue and black dots in AZ, that was the issue.

I put money on Bozeman even if it does not have a dot, it's just a good distance from Billings.
In Canada, besides having a lot of hope for Hope coming soon. Cornwall will not Lands End for Tesla; in fact, I predict an early beginning for Tesla there.

Better yet, here are some great animated GIFs of before and after the recent changes: Changes to Official Supercharger Map: Archive and Animations
Tifton, GA isn't on the map. Which one is it? Or is it in error? Wouldn't be the first time.

It's the first Canadian Supercharger!

Although it doesn't have the blue lines yet.
Yes, looks like they took pity on the Canadians and made Squamish Number 100.
Although we know Tifton has power and somebody reported charging at Wickenburg, although they still apparently had a couple of hours work to do.
Yeah, they kicked I84 to the curb. Major disappointment as I wanted to hit Sun Valley in the MS.

I think that's kind of cool. It's like Elon saying "Oh Can-a-da!"
Tifton and Wickenburg are official. Who gets credit for #100 US?

For any of us normal humans, that would get us a ride in an ambulance and a long stay in a hospital.
