I learned a LOT and it's such a great group to be part of. I'm pretty tired as I had a late flight back last night and almost missed it, then had to get up at 5am this morning for work  Midway is a lot further drive from Madison than I thought it would be! I thought for sure the TSA was going to destroy my luggage with all the car parts and stuff I had packed into my check-in bag (Engine block heater, scangauge, Toyota flashlights, show goodies, etc). Luckily everything made it back in one piece! Thanks to Avis for having a SPM Prius rental so I could participate even without my own Pri. Evan - thanks for sharing your pictures - they look great! Here's a link to my photos of the event: http://s186.photobucket.com/albums/x...ybridFest2008/ Be sure to check out Jason's video of Alexandra Cattelan (GM E-Flex Engineer) speech on Friday night after the MPG challenge: Hope to see you all at next year's event!

My Car: 2004 Prius Package: #9 Nominated 1 Time in 1 Post TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 24 | Re: Hybridfest 2008 Report Ah, didn't even notice that was Jason's recording posted....I only noticed Jay recording it...he said he missed a few seconds of the last question but otherwise got the entire talk....looking forward to seeing that again. Too bad nobody kept the cameras rolling for the informal Q&A afterward during the ice cream social...that's when a few interesting things came out regarding the lease program for the battery and the Cd they expect for the Volt. |
