Ha! I wasn't expecting that

Can't say that I've ever seen that many all lined up here in Oz.

Pearl, Mississippi is moving forward. I live in rural Iowa. I have seen one Tesla in our town of 5,000, and one Tesla in the county to our north where the county seat town is about population 1,300. I don't know where the nearest charging station is located. It is a very cool picture.

Very nice. I read that Ford is copying the same design for their electric car chargers.

These are located near US Interstate 20 which is a major east west highway and also can be accessed from US Interstate 55 which is a major north south highway. I assume that Tesla installs these at strategic locations along major highways especially the US Interstate system. I've seen them in use only once or twice. Thanks for the comment an visit!!

Yesiree, we're totally progressive here in Pearl! I don't really look for Teslas when I'm out and about but I suspect there are a few around the area judging by the other high end vehicles I see on a days when I do get out and about. Thanks I appreciate your comment and I am glad you thought the image was cool!

Many thanks, If battery operated cars are to become "mainstream" then the method of connecting the chargers to the vehicle for a recharge surely need to be standardized. They probably have a long way to go to reach the standardization of a gasoline or diesel filler nozzle.

A nice shot, Larry. I got a real charge out of it (somebody had to say this ).

In our town (pop: about 30,000) about 45 miles south of Houston, I frequently see Teslas running around - the times they are 'a changin'.
