    most of the charging stops we go to are OK.

    the ones built around places with food/bathrooms are best.

    mind you, we've only stopped at a few. road trips to see the kids @ school.

    the worst - are the ones built at HEB grocery stores. no restrooms or quick food.

    There is one in Flatonia TX...Amigo's...it's a Mexican Buccee's. it's awesome.

    Ponder - there is $ to be made if you had a decent Tesla charging station.

    the one by us...Rudy's BBQ League City, is good. food & bathrooms. AND they are building a Great Wolf Lodge VERY close by, so I'm sure it will either be expanded or clogged up.

    Houston has added a gaggle of new stations. as they should, it's dense urban. it makes owning an EV possible.

    Tesla is year's ahead in every aspect.


    Our neighborhood got a new entry gate controller....so if you hear an inordinate amount of cuss words coming from my direction....it's me re-programming all this shit.

    For all those that have supercharged...what's the best one you stopped at?

    including non-tesla folks...best charging location.

    Buccees down in San Marcos has been good the couple times I used it. The one at the bakery on 35 just north side of Waco is good too. They gave Tesla drivers a free coffee if you showed your key card.

    That will most likely vary based on area, time of day, charge speed, and available chargers.

    Gotta say, the new Model 3 isn't near as ugly as the outgoing one. If it got the $7500 off I'd be tempted.

    which comes out to ~50mpg...based on the price of premium

    ~120mpg when we charge at home

    I'd like to get behind them, but when you produce a vehicle and can't make the lighting system last more than 18 months, that's a easy pass for me. I can't tell you how many late model KIA/Hyundai I see with LED's out.

    Ya, but driven hard/fast wont have the same effects compared to an ICE car. As long as the underside looks good, tie-rods, wheels not bent, etc. should be good to go. Albeit; if it has X miles on it, those are all X SC miles, if it makes a difference to purchaser.

    Yes... Some used to believe (or still do) that frequent supercharging wears out the battery. But that was proven wrong by a lot of high mileage Teslas that only used superchargers and had the same minimal battery degradation as Teslas that rarely supercharged.

    2021 Silver Limited CM
    Husky X-act, front windows tint, Xpel PPF, center console organizer and tray, TRD front and rear sway bar, touch screen cover, transmission cooler, wireless charger, keyless tailgate lock, Eibach Pro Truck 2.0 coilovers, many more.
    When I would charge at SC for about 280 miles of range it would be around $12-15. Not bad when you consider my Tundra would only get like 45-60 miles on $12-15 of gas.
