    The anti-Tesla EV lovers

    Manufacturers 1 through 8 in that list have 800V charging vehicles for sale today. (Well, unsure about polestar. Sure of the 1-6,8). Tesla has the cybertruck ... and no where to charge it at full speed. You have to take your Telsa Cybertruck to a 3rd party charging station to max out it's charging.

    Include 3rd party chargers..

    Given the changes in the supercharger strategy, it will be more important to support other charging networks. The navigation should know about other charging options (Electrify America, EVgo, etc), and support navigating to them. (No, not just the few chademo adapters that EVgo bought. The CCS...

    Supercharger - North Bend, WA - North Bend Outlets (Permit applied 1/9/24, 24 V4)

    My understanding from a youtube video[0] from a company that does a lot of installs for Tesla is that if it hasn't broken ground, it's likely getting axed. [0]

    Hit one site so far, and I couldn't figure out how to get the handle out of the first pedestal, but the 2nd one worked exactly as I'd have expected.

    Supercharger - Blaine, WA - Boblett Street (LIVE 11 Apr 2024, 16 V4 stalls)

    Because you've been stuck waiting in line to come across for a few hours now, in the snowy cold, and didn't charge beforehand because you thought you'd be through there quick and charge at Burlington... forgetting that your mother riding back with you doesn't have Nexus so you've got to take the...

    500 + Mile Range Debate

    I'm assuming (ass/u/me) that's from a change to the EPA standards, and not a material change in the highway range. But ... we'll have to see. Maybe the wider tires are making the aerodynamics that much worse. To this thread: 500 Tesla miles != 500 Porsche miles. 500 Porsche miles would be total...

    Supercharger - Burlington, WA

    I noticed the site expansion's showing as open on the find-us page? As "Burlington, WA - Old Highway 99 North"

    500 + Mile Range Debate

    Yes, really. The S is also too long... and the 202x Roadster was also looking quite interesting to me, before it was clear it wouldn't exist any time soon. (and ... given the range of the Plaid-S losing the really-long range option that was promised... it likely won't have the long-range variant...

    500 + Mile Range Debate

    For me, specifically, it's too long. Doesn't fit in the garage. Otherwise I would have already bought one - software warts and all.

    Supercharger - Silverdale, WA (under construction Apr 2024, 12 V4)

    At least for my uses, that's a good location... when I'm headed home from the peninsula I'm usually going through Tacoma, and that's on route in a way the Poulsbo one isn't. Of course, EA has pretty good coverage in this corridor,and the Hood Canal corridor (101) needs coverage badly, so...

    Your M3H 'Stalkless' Driving Experience....

    I've had my model 3P for 3 years now. When I first got it, I thought the lack of a dash would drive me insane. After three years... YES, THE LACK OF A DASH IS INSANE! ahem. I generally believe you can't really know until you try it. But ... I find a quick trial is usually enough, at least for...

    Supercharger - Burlington, WA

    60 seems low for paired... I'd expect 70-something. and 20 (and very unsteady) is implausible. (Yes, being paired was quite likely. I'm aware of the unusual numbering)

    Supercharger - Burlington, WA

    Plugged into a stall near the entrance today, and only got 26kW. Moved to a different stall and only got 60-something kW. Gave up and drove to the Burlington Marketplace staion. I really wish I could tell my car to just never navigate here...at least until the expansion opens.

    Do all of the V4s have the 1kV port? That's the first one I've seen in the real world, and now I'm wondering if those will charge Hyundai's/GMs/etc at full speed (and ... also, Cybertrucks)
