this afternoon
 
Fort Stockton location: a rather vague "some hotel there - should be right around the new year."

Thanks for your Junction and Ozona reports. Did you also pass through Fort Stockton today and look for activity? It looks like there are several possible hotels that have hosted other superchargers: Best Western, Hampton Inn, La Quinta, and Holiday Inn Express.
 
Justicepool: yes, Ozona Best Western - immediate right turn at the west-bound exit to access.
BW is being remodeled. Secluded location for the SCs. DQ and a pretty good local restaurant
an easy walk ~ 1/4 mile away. Looks like construction just started - pretty messy.

emupilot - yes, we looked in Fort Stockton but didn't see anything obvious. We've been watching the Pilot truck stop and the hotel
cluster on the west end of town. No luck, yet.

Purely speculative on my part, but based on the buildout of I-80 in Nebraska, I think Tesla is trying to keep the segment legs on these routes a little lower, more like 100 miles. I-10 is a little tough to do it well, so some of the legs may need to be a bit short.So, that said, maybe something like
Casa Grande - Tucson ~ 70 miles
Tucson - Willcox ~ 80 miles
Willcox - Lordsburg ~ 75 miles
Lordsburg - Deming ~ 60 miles
Deming - Las Cruces ~ 60 miles (perhaps you can skip Deming)
Las Cruces - Sparks ~ 65 miles
Sparks - Van Horn ~ 105 miles
Van Horn - Ft. Stockton ~ 120 miles
Van Horn - Ozona ~ 107 miles.

That would end up being 8, 7 if you take out Deming. Although I like Deming as it's used as a shortcut to get to I-25
