San Diego Meetup - Sunday Jan 8 -12:00pm

[Bobby]

Yea, makes me want to take my new car on its first road trip. 384 miles from my house to Carlsbad Brewing Co.

Do it! I made a road trip to Pismo Beach the very first week I had the car. It is a wonderful car for long trips. Make a weekend of it! San Diego is a beautiful place.

Love San Diego! We've been going to South Mission Beach every July for the last 20 years (like, it seems, half of Arizona!). I'll feed my wife a couple of beers after work and throw the idea out there.

Bobby - there will be 2 of us. Thanks for arranging this great event!

My wife and I are new to the LUCID Owner’s Forum. Thanks go out to Amish and Len. We are looking forward to hanging out with other LUCID owners on January 8th.

Please count us in and hello everyone!

@MWL was nice seeing you at EA in Ontario! Looking forward to seeing you again this weekend.

Please add two more coming from Palm Springs. My wife agreed and this will be our first road trip.

Seeing all this activity has finally convinced my wife to join! @Bobby please update me to 2.

This is getting good! Wished we had some merch from the site to wear (t-shirt/hat/etc). Should have contracted @Tesla2Lucid to make us up some shirts!

But Tesla's are much better for road tripping...

Yeah, in a world where I liked driving a Tesla, I guess.

Having never owned one but now having had one for 3 weeks, I will never again accept anyone saying “Teslas don’t have issues.” Sure, I can make my turn signal sound like jingle bells and my road look rainbow, but then it also crashes twice a day requiring a reset, sometimes decides to randomly honk the horn for no reason, the navigation consistently tells me the name of the wrong highway (“Take the 101 North” when the only exits are 280 N, 280 S, or 85 N - what it meant was take the 85 N to the 101 N, 3 miles later).

The extra features like sentry mode, auto garage open and close, etc., are neat, but Lucid will add those in due time. But “problem free” they are most definitely not.

San Diego was somewhat late to the get together game...but looks like this is gonna be a blast. Incredible interest and expected turnout!

Hah, rented a Model Y for my parents so they could get "used to" road tripping in an EV. Almost turned them off of EVs for good. Then came the Lucid =)

Do it! You can crash at my place and drive the Aston to the meet-up.
