Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
They will do that if the best property available happens to be a gas station and sometimes it is. Tesla is, for example, planning one in downtown Fairfax VA which happens to be at an old gas station but there is nothing particular about a gas station that make it more or less desirable than any... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
As I said in an earlier post out in the boonies where land sells for $50K an acre petroleum remediation is a boat anchor. Around here where an acre in a prime business location goes for well over $1M it isn't. We don't have any derelict gas stations in this zip code (or any of the ones around... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
There's a gas station at the end of my driveway. It flunked the EPA tests when he tried to sell it. So he dug it up and removed the tanks and contaminated earth. I'm sure it cost him a few coin but he had no trouble covering it and selling the place. Whether remediation is worth it or not... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
This puts an entirely different perspective on things. I have been here thus far entirely focused on the range anxiety question i.e. on travel charging. Overall 85% of charging is done at home and so for most users local area charging is of little interest. I've charged at local SC's twice: once... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
Not really much new viewpoint to offer but to reiterate that the old mom and pop operation that sold gas, ice, sodas, fan belts and worms is generally a thing of the past. There is a reason those old rural gas stations are closing left and right. Tesla wants to make charging on the road... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
You seem to be under some misapprehension as to the nature and purpose of the Super Charging network. It still seems you don't appreciate the difference. The Destination Charger is located wherever a business owner wants to put one. A Super Charger is located where Tesla want's to put one, not... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
I think you are confusing Super Chargers with Destination Chargers, The only company that installs or operates Super Chargers is Tesla and they operate them at 0 profit or a loss. The only benefits to the convenience store or turnpike authority are the rent they get for the land and the customer... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
That's the guy I was thinking of in No. 4. Wonder how he is faring. I think it will. There is just one thing I'd like to see them add and that is an attendant who, when your car is finished charging, moves it (you put it in valet mode) to a parking spot in a designated area and sends you a text... -
Turn bankrupt gas stations into supercharger locations
The old "gas station" simply isn't viable any more. You can't make money selling gas and fixing flats. The margins are too low. That's why so much gas now is sold at "convenience stores". The gas pumps are there to attract you to the inside of the store which is where the money is made. An old... -
Closer look at Rivian’s electric delivery van for Amazon
Yes, isn't it! I got my X at the end of December 2018 (that's 14 months ago). I used to see one or rarely 2 Teslas a couple of times a week. Now I see several every day. Fast chargers (Tesla and others) are popping up everywhere. My car (X100D) had EPA range of 295 miles. The same model today... -

Tesla ... great company , wrong name!!
No thanks. I know it wasn't only puppies. -
Tesla ... great company , wrong name!!
When I got my X I was fine with this but he (Tesla) in fact invented the alternating current INDUCTION motor (my X has 2), which made it possible to build AC motors as simply or more simply that DC ones thus putting the nail in Edison's (the puppy killer) coffin. But now the company is moving... -
Tesla Service Truck!
I have often wondered about how they define fleet and how strictly they enforce this policy. I'ts pretty clear that a cab company with 500 vehicles in a city should have its own Super Chargers at its central garage. But what about the guy who works as a site supervisor for a construction company... -
Summon on a Tesla Model X
Video won't play but I''ll complete the sentence: "Summon on a Tesla Model X is pretty much a joke." -

La Belle Province but only when the weather is belle. Mrs. was born in Montreal and spent summers in the Eastern Townships as a child. After I retired she agitated vigorously for a summer "cottage" on Lake Memprhemagog. We all know the happy wife/happy life formula and so we started spending... -
Tesla Q4 2019 Profitability thoughts?
There will be no feature complete FSD this year. Or next or the year after. If there is it will be in name only. Tesla should, nonetheless, continue to prosper barring some unpredictable caastrophe such as the discovery that proximity to lithium increases cancer risk appreciably or some... -
Variable frequency drive
That's exactly what a variable speed drive does. In a modern motor vehicle the so called 'AC' motors are connected to controllers that make it possible to control them as if they were DC motors i.e. by effectively separately controlling field and torque. OP isn't likely to find what he is... -
The Single Pane of Tesla
I based the consumption estimate on the usual sizing of solar systems to cover about 2/3 of the home owners annual consumption. Clearly your consumption is less than half of what I came up with and your power walls should thus sustain you for at least 4 days. That would certainly get you through... -
The Single Pane of Tesla
It appears from the numbers that your demand is about 86 kWh/day. The 4 power walls will give you about 52 kWh so that will carry you for about about 1 - 2/3 days unless, of course, you institute load shedding in which case you can run a bit longer. Do you still have the generator in the system...
