Saturday meet up with other drivers at the Drive In Movie theater. For those with kids, bring the family (two kids play areas).
Not only meet other EVers but check out the craft fair and live music. All this for less than the price of a normal theater...

BTW we're working to get fast chargers along 99.

Old Gas:1000 miles, 20 mpg, $4/gal = $200 per month on gas, plus $10/month oil & filter change = $210 / month
