Additional details about this Tesla road trip will be provided soon.
I'm not sure it was the Red Bluff Tesla Supercharger where we stopped. But, I think this is a pretty good guess as I just wanted to top off before getting to our hotel in case the Tesla Destination Chargers at the hotel are not avaialble. I did not want to have to backtrack in the morning if I wasn't able to charge up at the hotel.
We spend the night at the Best Western Plus. They had 2 Tesla Destination Chargers and 2 Level II EV Chargers.
I've stopped at the Tesla Superchargers in Mount Shasta before on a number of my road trips between Vancouver, Washington, and Anaheim, California. However, on my prior trips, there were just a few Tesla Superchargers in a hotel parking lot. Those Tesla Superchargers are still there, but the number of chargers showing on the Tesla Center Console Display were way more than the number at the hotel. I then noticed there were many many more new Tesla Superchargers in the shopping center parking lot across from the hotel.
At the time we went here they did not have a tasting room so they are not actually open to the public. We were recommended by a friend who did not realize they don't have an actual tasting room. But, we did buy some cans and bottles of city to take home anyway.
This place still has FREE wine tastings! We got about a one or two ounce pour of just about everything that they make and didn't have to pay a penny for it! One of the few remaining wineries where the wine maker just wants you to try his wines without having to pay anything to try them. But, we did buy some bottles of wine from them along with some of their spicy pretzels.
This was our very last Tesla Supercharger stop before arriving at our home in Vancouver, Washington. We have a Level II EV Charger in our garage in Vancouver, Washington, that can charge up to 30 Amps or about 19 miles per hour. That is adequate for us. We plug in at night and are always fully charged to about 211 miles by the time we get in the car the next day. If for some reason we ever needed a faster charge, there are two Tesla Supercharger locations less than 20 miles from our Vancovuer home. But we have yet to ever need to use those. Just plugging the car in whenever we are at home in our Vancouver Condo is enough to ensure that we have a full charge every time we get in the car.
