I was at the key bank on transit in front of the eastern hills and noticed these were installed: ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/jeller/35FE387F-A9B2-4EDC-8E82-E784EDE8EE28_zpsfn2hdo5j.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/jeller/35FE387F-A9B2-4EDC-8E82-E784EDE8EE28_zpsfn2hdo5j.jpg) ---

Yep, hopefully the supercharger station is running by the time they release the Model 3 šŸ™‚ > I was told that the order for the transformer was put in last FEBRUARY! > Anyway, at the site, the enclosure around the SC hardware has been completed. The blacktop in front of the SC stalls has been replaced, presumably to allow for new SC spot lines to be laid down. Still no Transformer. Interesting that the SC stall closest to the enclosure looks a bit on the tight side. Guess it depends how they draw the lines. > ---

Thereā€™ll definitely be a threshold. Once X line is crossed, cars sold, etc, Y strategy kicks in. But Tesla is breaking so much new ground right now, who knows when thatā€™ll happen. Are the supercharger stations proprietary, or can I park a Nissan Leaf / Focus EV etc. and juice up? ---

It would be nice if they could open a dealer in NYS as a independent but I donā€™t see that getting worked out anytime soon. When you have a car with this much new tech you want a place close to home to service it. I wouldnā€™t want to go to Toronto every time the car needed to be serviced. ---

Yeah Iā€™ve seen the Tesla service vehicle in Amherst / Clarence area. They come to you. You can do a motor swap in like an hour and there really isnā€™t much more complexity than that. Most of the stuff braking is silly things like the handles not automatically popping out of the body. ![http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4084&d=1328751818](http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4084&d=1328751818) [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/tesla-model-s-0-60-in-2-5s-762hp-now-w-fart-mode/65160.md?page=10) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/tesla-model-s-0-60-in-2-5s-762hp-now-w-fart-mode/65160.md?page=12)
