We do have the chademo fast charger out at the freeway (by the 
A&W/Chevron).  It would be nice to have a supercharger here, but with 
ones in Salem and Eugene, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Just this weekend, I made two trips to Portland in one day and my old 
6kw blink wasn't really much use; I've been thinking about upgrading to 
a 10kw charger, but not sure it's really worth the expense when I don't 
need it that often, and when I do, I really need even more than that.
