Where do you want a new Supercharger?

Durango, CO. Really southwest Colorado just needs to be built out. Northwest CO, too.
Burnaby BC. There is a very centric mall that's getting re-developed in which they could put them at (Brentwood Mall). This would ensure there is a central location close to the highway to charge at.
The only other options are downtown Vancouver's Pacific Centre which is a 20+ minute detour from highway 1 and you have to pay $4/30 minutes on top of the cost of charging on a V2 charger. Or the convention centre which has only 8 V2 stations & and also charges $3.50/30 minutes to park.
If you want to avoid downtown Vancouver, you have to drive out to Surrey which is 30+ minutes from downtown vancouver (V2 stations, free parking tho). Or Abbotsford 50+ minutes from Vancouver but its a V3 charger with free parking

Something in Ottawa other than the 72kW ones inside the pay parking at Rideau Centre would be nice, That has to be the least convenient location ever, high traffic and far from the highway. CHAdeMO stations with free parking are located in much more convinrent locations.
Canada’s capital deserves better than that
. Even the service centre here doesn’t have a supercharger.

Two of the longest gaps between superchargers on the US map:
1. Seligman, AZ (half way between Kingman & Flagstaff AZ on I-40)
2. Mesquite, NV (Half way between Las Vegas NV & St George UT on I-15)

-All highway rest areas/plazas
-30-60% of all large oasis style travel stops (flying J/pilot, love’s, TA, buc-ees, QT, Wawa, etc.)
-Tesla Dealers, Service centers, and showrooms.
-Points of interest including national parks where possible.
-Canada through to Alaska corridor.

South of Birmingham. AL near I-20 and I-459 (Hoover, AL)
South Atlanta area (along south I-285 loop and maybe further south like Stockbridge)

In my garage.
Dodge City KS and Lamar CO.
Doesn’t necessarily have to be in my garage, but would be nice to have one at the corner down the street from me. I have now adapted to the point where even a 2-3 minute drive to my nearest one is out of the way, haha.
+1 to Roswell. That seems like an obvious candidate.
West Memphis, AR would also be a good spot. The Memphis supercharger is ridiculously far out of the way if you're turning and going up I55.
Also, Farmington, MO to shore up the gap between Sikeston and Rolla.

Ventura County, CA. Oxnard, Ventura, Simi Valley. Only one I know of is in Thousand Oaks. I use destination charger in Simi Valley, it's free if you stay at their hotel.
Michigan upper peninsula.
It’s a huge dead zone that makes Lake Superior recreational areas unreachable from the south and makes traversing the upper peninsula difficult-to-impossible.
Potentially* having to drive all the way south around the southern tip of Lake Michigan or having to go north around Lake Superior through Canada in order to reach northern Michigan from the west is ridiculous. (*If you can’t make the 254 miles from Howard, WI to Mackinaw City, MI on a single charge. And even if you can, depending on where you’re coming from, detouring through Howard is potentially way out of the way.)
Two planned sites with no progress in years:
Supercharger - Escanaba, MI
Supercharger - Marquette, MI
