<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(bernzx @ May 28 2006, 04:54 PM) [snapback]262140[/snapback]</div> There's a pretty large group of active prius chatters from up your way. I think that they've gotten together before. I don't see a national meet happening, country's just too big and who wouldn't wanna bring their car to such an event?
A National Prius meeting sounds like a great idea. Or perhaps a National Hybrid meeting. Either way it would be interesting, particuarly if it focused on the technology, and not the politics.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(bernzx @ May 28 2006, 06:54 PM) [snapback]262140[/snapback]</div> Check out Hybridfest.
PriusChat will be holding our own meet in Chicago on Sunday, July 2nd. Keep your eyes and ears open for more info - I'll post it soon.
july 2nd? hmm... we might be able to leave a little early... we were actually heading up that way right around then.

This PriusChat thread has more details. We have other people coming from your neck of the woods. It's a long drive and would take a few days if you plan on driving to Hybridfest. We can link you up with others from your area if you plan on going.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(ericbecky @ May 29 2006, 03:03 PM) [snapback]262409[/snapback]</div> Any takers from NY, NJ, PA, MA? How long of a ride from Miss LIberty town?
oop, missed this thread till Eric pointed it out to me. From up here in Beantown, the GPS says 1100 miles, 19 hours. Thats a fuggovalong way, but not as bad as doing Florida and back last winter. Probably an hour or two less from NYC/LI. Probably a longer time if you're trying to hypermile the whole way. . _H*

In the meantime, if you are considering attending Hybridfest there are some hybrids coming from Nashville and Knoxville if you want to caravan up to Madison, WI together.
