That's out by Fayetteville.  Half way to Houston.

I'm always interested in testing my range; here are some suggestions 
for group activities:
1) have meetups at various places where there are charging 
opportunities
2) group develop some cost effective "dump chargers" that could be used 
at 30-40 amps at 220vac in order to facilitate minimal time, but not 
full, re-charges
3) semi-publicly post charging locations that might facilitate cross 
country travel

I offer my place, in Dale, as a charge station by appointment and also 
as a potential destination for a meetup.

I've been almost 90 miles to and from near Burnet with several hours of 
charging before returning.  I can do the same to San Antonio.  I'm 
pretty sure I can make Salado, Rek Hill, and Fredericksburg.  Anyone 
else out there wanting to push EV range?
