see 2 supercharger locations in Nola. T


And the main one on Canal was out of service for some reason yesterday.

How much does it cost to install the standard chargers at home? That’s what I will do when it comes time

That line is a good thing. If it gets longer, you can grab lunch at Deanie’s. If it gets even longer, you can get dinner at R&O.

You shouldn't have to if you use it for a commuter vehicle and aren't taking it on the highways.


I drive mine up and down the Hwy all day.

I am glad that is a problem I don't have. There are not any EV charging stations within 50 miles of my house.

Why would you need EV charging stations in a 50 mile radius of your house if you owned an EV?

I can't explain to anyone why this made me laugh out loud in my office, but it did.

Do you live in a house or apartment?

If apartment, that makes sense. If house, you'll never need those 2 local superchargers.

For the thousandth time in this thread - the Teslas pictured are rentals. If you own a Tesla, you charge at your house and you don’t have this problem.

There are a lot more chargers than the Superchargers around the city. More coming all the time.

Last pic is Tesla with hazards on. Ran out of juice while waiting i this ridiculously long line.



I used to live behind those brick fence columns at the back of the last pic! Cops would always hide behind them and radar people down lake ave!

I asked a couple of dudes standing in the street next to their cars. A few of stations were down and that made a bad problem worse.

The AC comes on automatically when the car is off to keep the inside temp cool enough to protect the electronics from over heating. A hot as it is, it probably runs all day, grinding the batteries down even when they’re parked. I noticed a few out of state tags in the line, too.

Did you just have a stroke mid-TD post? Turn yourself off and back on again
