Over the past 3.5 years, I've been involved with all kinds of meetings of hybrid owners. Some were casual, some were formal, some were even sponsored by organizations. All of them were a blast. Owners and wannabies all have a lot of fun swapping stories and checking out each others hybrids. SATURDAY, JANUARY 31 at 3:00 PM That's when the next one will be in Minnesota. We'll be meeting casually, at the STARBUCKS coffee shop in Maple Grove (the northwest corner of the Twin Cities). This link provides details and a map... http://john1701a.com/gathering.htm Hope to see you there. JOHN http://john1701a.com

We had owners of 6 new Prius and 1 classic attend. A few still waiting for delivery showed up too.

That's not bad considering how cold it was (9 F degrees) and the fact that there was a threat of snow.

We ended up sitting around for quite awhile (2 cups of coffee for me) just swapping hybrid stories. It was great!

I snuck out into the cold for a few minutes of frozen photos too. (Watch for those in a week or two on my website.)

Once it finally warms up outside (and more finally get their Prius), we are really going to have fun. Stay tuned.

Glad it worked out for you. I wonder if I'd be able to round up 6 owners around my area I JUST saw my 2nd Prius (besides my own) on the highway this weekend. I tapped on the horn and intended to wave, but quite naturally the friends I was driving thought me crazy. They haven't been bit by the hybrid bug
