Unfortunately, it turns out I can't make it this Sunday. I really wanted to come to this meeting because I'm a first time owner and I'm having trouble keeping my MPG up during this cold weather. I'm going to post my questions in the proper area on this site.

See everyone in I'm leaving in 3 hours. I should be there just before 2. Anyone want to bring something with 'Hybrid Gathering' or whatever on it so people know where we are sitting?

So, once again I wasn't able to make it. Why do I plan these things when I cannot make them. LOL. Well, somebody please give a me a report on how the meet went. And did anybody take pictures. Hope there were some new people that showed up that didn't last time.

There were 13 people that showed up. There were a few unfamiliar faces. Bradlee and Tony took some pictures.

I think the turn-out was good. We had Tom's HCH, Justin's Insight, Herb's Escape, Mark's Hybrid Camry, Mike's Classic Prius, and about 4 Gen II Prius. There was even an Accord Hybrid in the parking lot but we couldn't find the owner. Todd Dore brought his converted Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Prius for us all to keep salivating after lunch. And I installed Steve's block heater in his Prius before we all broke up. A good time.

great to hear. you could have seen mine at the old orchard parking lot, but it is just a hchii. great to see people pitched in and helped somebody install the block heater. at least it has warmed up quite a bit!

You could have parked your HCH II at Portillo's so we would have had the Honda line-up.
