Just read a response that was shared from Tesla Supercharging Team:
So, anybody with a little bit of scouting ability and some spare time: Time to start looking along the I-10 corridor for possible and FUTURE Supercharger locations.
Because they are coming.
And SOON.
Supercharging the Southeast is next on Tesla's horizon....
Message to the supercharging team from me:
Folks,
I just completed my first Supercharged drive. I went from Burnsville MN to Champaign IL, stopping at LaCross, Mauston, Madison, Rockford and Normal.
All I can say is WOW. What a great experience. The trip seemed to go much quicker when going from one station to the next, and with the frequent stops, I arrived at my destination with no fatigue at all! I found that I was ready for a bathroom break or a meal each time I arrived at a new location, and so the spacing is perfect.
The superchargers themselves could not be easier to use. Remove the cord from the holster, press the button to open the door, and plug it in! Amazing. No breakers to switch, no card to swipe, nothing. Very nice.
Given the lightning speed that the stations are being built, I was thinking that there are bound to be some teething problems, but I didn't notice any.
I will be returning on Friday/Saturday, and I am looking forward to driving the route again.
I would like to be able to drive from Minneapolis to Tampa Florida (via Indianapolis, Nashville, Chattanooga, and Atlanta). I hope that route gets some attention. I think the Chicago folks would appreciate it too.
Very well done, and keep up the fabulous work!
