Despite the recent Chevvy ads, Motown really is Ford country.

So far we have six checking in:
Rich (Pravis Prime) -Thumb
Sledge - Saginaw
John - NW Detroit
Courtney (nimhbug) - Livonia
Bill (Wbruff)- Livonia
Raven - ??

I listed locations so it would be easy to see that finding a time and place for all of us isn't going to be easy. I had originally proposed a picnic (BBQ) somewhere north of the metro area to accomodate Rich and Sledge. I hope that is still an option.

A weekend luncheon would be okay if we recognize that it would be intended for a more local group. Rich and Sledge would be welcome, of course, but we would understand if the trip were a bit much for them.

Well, if you want to get technical, I live North of Mount Clemons in Macomb Township.

Also, I know there are more MI members here, but they either don't wish to identify themselves for meeting purposes, or don't check the Events and Gatherings forums. (Far more likely IMHO.)

Meanwhile, welcome to us all in the SEMI-HUG (SouthEast MIchigan Hybrid Users Group).

There's one RX400h in Saginaw. I've seen it several times.

I've seen a few Prius' around. Last week I saw a HiHy, first time for that. I was next to an Insight last summer for a stretch. At the Woodward Dream Cruise, for the hybrid cruise, I saw a lot of HCHs.

I wonder if the Ford sticker is to qualify the car for parking in the special Ford Truck Assembly lot?

Hey Mark in K-zoo,

Welcome to the Michigan Roll Call.

I assume you have read the other posts on this thread and know that some of us are interested in some kind of get-together this spring or summer.

Those interested are scattered - Saginaw, Macomb County, Livonia (2 or 3 - I lost count), Detroit.

Would you be interested in making it to a hybriders picnic if its timing were compatible with your schedule? For some reason, most of us drive FEH's and we could use a Prius or two.
