It might be interesting to spice up the event. An example...

If there's a decent attendance by "pending owners" and "potential reservations", we could have a competition for most interesting question asked of current owners.
 
I filled out the survey (nice job of creating it, Francis. Great questions). Would make for some great conversation and should be very educating. I imagine there is a steady flow of cars being shipped up from Fremont as of lately. I'm astonished at how many I've seen on the road the last couple of weeks. So there should be plenty of people in the area soon owning one as well.

speaking of which....four more days and I will be a Model S owner as well...woo-hoo! On my way home from work on Friday I let one pass me as I noticed it in the rear view mirror :rolleyes: (license plate: "TSLA EV"...first blue one I've seen on the road (the license plate LEDs lights look great in the dark, btw!))
 
Thanks for organizing, I'll be there!

Thanks for organizing this.

I am not likely to have my Tesla at the Spring get together, I am in the multi-coat red queue, but am looking forward to meeting people and learning more about the Tesla Model S.

A Final Note
Last but not least and in no particular order, I want to thank all the volunteers and sponsors who is making this possible. I hope I did not miss anyone. A special shoutout to John Nicholson who is single-handedly coordinating all the presentations.

Even more Goodies!

Torklift Central, makers of the EcoHitch in Kent, is offering a nice discount on their hitches at the event. They will be at the event to answer questions too.

They are offering $25 off the hitch up to 15 people and after 15 people, we get $50 off.

You can see more information at http://torkliftcentral.com/ecohitch_tesla_model_s.php. There is a cool video of the drill-less installation of their hitch on a Model S on that page.

See you Sunday!
