Anyone have any more info. about a Miami Service Center?
I asked the person who had earlier mentioned it to me. He says that the topic is "still in discussion". However, it is quite reasonable to think that there is no immediate plan because nothing has been disclosed and no jobs have been posted. As others have noticed from time to time, the single most authoritative source seems to be job postings.
Frankly I am puzzled. From all anecdotal and empirical evidence Miami-Dade, especially within the Dadeland catchment area and the Bal Harbor catchment area, seems to be one of the largest concentrations of Tesla owners in the US without a local service center. Naples is soon to open, and obviously needed, but probably Dania will not see huge relief from that SC. As it stands Dania seems consistently overloaded already and new registrations are worsening that situation. So, why not Miami already?
The only thing that gives me pause is that the SC situation in much of Europe is worse, and might also be in worse pressure in some parts of the US.
Obviously, as denizens of Miami-Dade we really don't care about the rest of the world as much as we care about our own vested interests.
So, two grand local issues resound with me:
1. Miami Service center;
2. At least two Miami Supercharger locations; one Northern (somewhere Golden Glades- catching I95, turnpike, I75) and one more southerly (I95/US1, 826, Turnpike south)
Although the SC is for local support, those two Superchargers will, together with Plantation (whenever it finally opens), make the winter residents and tourists finally have easy access to their normal stopovers associated with the Keys and everything Miami-Dade.
I keep wondering how we can act to encourage both of these issues within the Tesla hierarchy. Any ideas?
