To/from Crested Butte: 60 miles—critical as there’s no back door outta CB in the winter when range is impacted most and Poncha Springs is beyond Monarch Pass. Very happy to see this addition.

This location makes the ParkSleepFly.com option much more viable by having a charger within a block or two of where my car might be parked during a trip out of town. (I just hope they rabbits can’t get to any of wiring ;-) Rabbits Are Disabling Cars at Denver Airport

Nooooooo! This location is adjacent to what used to be one of the better donut shops around which is now listed as “permanently closed”. On the other hand it’ll be nice being able to get a reasonably priced charge next to one of the most predatory priced gas stations in the state.

We stopped here for the first time on Nov 21st southbound and we’re able to skip Poncha Springs with this location being almost exactly halfway between our place in Colorado and Albuquerque. It might have been the only stop but we had a cold overnight in Santa Fe so thought we’d better get a...

Excellent! I have been yammering about the need for this location since 2018 and our annual Colorado to Albuquerque Thanksgiving trip. We’ll give it a spin next week.

Of course this is finally coming on line. My sister-in-law sold her home in ABQ and is moving to Denver. We won’t be using this route as much in the future. 🤦‍♂️

I’ll be buzzing through there Monday, prolly won’t be operational by then ;-) Besides, at the other SC, Der Weinerschnitzel! (Wife frowns.)

Excellent news! We, too, had been voting for this location.

Alamosa! Must! Have! Dammit!

Check out Silverthorne, Colorado: 1.3 miles. Dang close.

Yikes! Lucky for us. This time. Indeed, the spacing between Goodland to Denver is well within range but we were moving along per the ‘good-to-go’ prompt on this screen at Goodland. Our habit on this trip—4,100 miles over 17 days—was to always get ourselves a little extra charge beyond...

Heading west from Colby last Thursday with the next scheduled stop to be Limon we got an alert on the screen that said the “Supercharger on your route is out of service”. That’s it, no contingency suggestions. With no other option and the likelihood that we wouldn’t make Denver we continued...

C’mon, Tesla, ALAMOSA already! By the time (if) they ever add this my sister-in-law will have moved from ABQ to DEN. We are west of Denver and much prefer taking US-285. (Just in case, there is a ChargePoint slow-drip at the public library.)

ugh, Culver‘s. You’ll have to pry my Jamocha Shake out of my cold, dead hands. Arby’s über alles! (And at most Tesla chargers along I-70 between Denver and St. Louis. ;-)

Getting back to another salient point, the Audi Q7, its not like it’s a 1998 Ford Explorer. The OP could possibly have a setup which includes adaptive cruise control, ventilated seats, lane-guidance and safety features that I am adamant about being superior to Tesla’s—particularly with blind...
