Tennessee Public Charging?

[EVNation]

I have had emails asking to populate the EV Charger Finder iPhone app with public charging stations in Tennessee.

Tennessee is an early roll-out state with participation in EV Project. But sadly, there is no info on what is actually available right now that I can find.

I do have Nashville Scooters, Richland LLC in Pulaski and one other. Do any of you know if any others are active? How about your local Nissan Dealers?

Some more announcement links.

Barr Nissan in Columbia looks like the only dealer in the area listed on the Leaf website. I called but no answer. Sunday and all...

Anyone ordering through them?

Cracker Barrel?

They are home grown here in Tennessee...

We live in Nashville and would be able to do quite a few vacational "nature" trips on some longer Weekends or for our visits with family of hours just in the triangle of Nashville, Knoxville, Chattanooga. This would bring them "Cracker Barrel" quite a bit of business if they would hurry up and install their planned QC (L3).

So I emailed them last week and asked when I can take my Leaf to one of there 24 stores in that area, here is what I received as an answer from Guest Relations:

Dear Mr. C,

Thank you for taking the time to share your comments with all of us here at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store. We're always pleased to hear from our guests.

Twelve of the 24 Cracker Barrel locations that will have chargers installed have been identified. Located along the Tennessee Triangle, these locations will support EV drivers traveling along the corridor connecting Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga:

" Athens
" Cleveland
" Cookeville
" Crossville " East Ridge
" Farragut
" Harriman
" Kimball

" Lebanon
" Manchester
" Murfreesboro
" Nashville Stewart s Ferry Pike

We look forward to seeing you in one of our locations again soon.

Sincerely,

P. S.

It looks like we have to create some "demand" to get something done...
