Ladies and Gents,
The DMV did it big this past weekend! We officially had the largest-ever Lucid owner event with over 60 vehicles and over 120 people in the group for our rally event! Check some of the photos on
Lucid's socials. The professional photos are coming soon and I will share those here upon receipt.
MASSIVE thank you to everyone on the forum who helped spread the word and showed up for the rally. Special shoutout to
@Babyrocko1908 who came down from PA along with shoutouts to the drivers who came down from NY, NJ, and DE. We also had a couple drivers from Richmond. It was truly awesome being able to meet so many of you in person, swapping stories and enjoying what was a gorgeous day outside at elevation in Virginia's wine country. I cannot think of another auto manufacturer that would host this type and caliber of event, free of charge, for its customers in our community.
I also want say thank you to those that shared feedback with me about the rally - good and bad. We tried to meet a lot of requirements for this first rally given the DC, MD, and VA touchpoints and we learned a lot in the process. We have already identified things that will be done differently to vastly improve the experience for the next big rally event; e.g. we'll start somewhere that doesn't entail a dozen traffic lights at the beginning that ended up separating us at each light, we'll skip the city detour in order to focus on the primary scenic route, and we'll try to get the route navigation/waypoints better communicated to all that show up (those not on the forum). Please Direct Message me here with any other thoughts from this weekend so we can make our next rally events even better and if you have any suggestions, ideas, or want to get involved, please let me know, too!
Here is a sneak peek at what is in the works for the next several months.
Mid July - Meetup, Lucids and Lattes (TBD in Maryland, within the Beltway)
Mid August - Educational, Service/Bodyshop Vendor Info Session (Sterling, VA)
Early September - Rally, Drive focused (TBD, Southern MD along Chesapeake Bay)
Mid October - Rally, Drive focused (TBD, Skyline/Shenandoah)
