there's a new SC being built at Copper, right off I-70. I'm hoping that will be one available to us.

Talking of Copper - I drove past there Tuesday morning heading to Leadville. I passed 5 different Rivians on the way up. By far the most I've seen on one drive.

I might have been one of those. We drove to Vail yesterday. ?

Does anybody have a recommendation for a good quality and value window tinting shop somewhere North of Denver?

Oh really, I thought they had chargers in Silverthorne. I guess those are not available for cars with adapters,,, yet. On the bright side, there appear to be a set of Superchargers going up in Copper Mountain.
They’re not on the rivian navigation for some reason, but there are four ChargePoint DCFC at the target in Silverthorne just FYI. We stopped there this past weekend when we saw the state of the frisco EA. Those new Starbucks/volvo/ChargePoint chargers popping up around the state have Been pretty reliable so far.

I didn't even know there was a Target there. I guess because it was hidden behind a row of trees.

My experience, in general, has been that Chargepoint is pretty reliable. Maybe not Tesla reliable but reliable enough. Thanks for the heads up.

EDIT: BTW, I just looked and those chargers do show up in the Rivian App.

I noticed one of the superchargers in Silverthorne (Ruby Ranch Road) showed up on the tesla app as being available for us. It doesn’t show in the rivian app for whatever reason, but I was driving past so gave it a go.

It worked with my A2Z adapter. This is the one further off I-70, not right by the exit to Dillon.

There was a curb on the left side, so I did the decent thing and got up on that so I only was taking up one space.

I tried with the Tesla app, but got a weird message saying it couldn’t connect, but I got a green bar, so knew I was charging. I got an invoice in the Rivian app, so guessing it went through them.

It was charging pretty quickly, although pricey. I didn’t stay long, just wanting to see if it was working.

So the superchargers are slowly opening up to us In CO.

I hadn’t seen this before. The Superchargers in Silverthorne and Idaho Springs now work with NACS adapters.

see the previous post - I tested the Silverthorne one with my a2z adapter, and it works. Good to see they're slowly opening more up. Now we need some more converted on I-76 and I-25...

Had anyone heard if the R2/R3/R3x traveling road show will make a stop in Denver?

I would be shocked if they didn’t make a stop at the Denver showroom. S00n…
