Bicster (Houston)
you (San Antone)
me (Arlington)
This spread might make our first get together tough! I guess we could all head for Austin? And every body will have to stop for a charge on the way....
adric22 said:Umm.. I think I'll wait for more people in the DF/W area for a get-together. I'm technically not in Fort Worth. I actually live in Kennedale off of Sublett rd and Hwy287, about 0.5 miles from the Arlington border. So we're pretty close.

jhm614 login to your account and edit your account you will see your reservation number and the cancel and at the bottom of the list is select a dealer. You enter your zip and select a dealer. I then check BBB the one closest to me had B rating and 2 more miles away had a A.jhm614 said:I haven't picked a dealer yet -- I didn't see that option when I reserved. Have the rest of the Texas Leafs dealered up?

One that comes to mind is that it's going to take quite a while to find the tail pipe when it comes to emissions testing.
Folks in this county seem to be completely unaware that there are already EVs on the roads (or I haven't yet found the right folks). As long as they're some nebulous future thing, they don't need to push to get charging infrastructure or streamline permits for EVSE installs.
And it took WAY too much time getting my bike registered - it took three people with blank stares to figure out that my motorcycle could get a license plate even if it didn't have a gas engine.

Bicster said:I believe all emission testing for cars, statewide, exclusively uses the OBD2 port test. I know that's the case for my area, at least. The tailpipe test is only needed for pre-1995 cars.
The OBD2 test just looks for all the relevant readiness bits (evap, catalyst, o2 sensor, etc.) to be clear. Not all cars support all bits; in that case they just lie and report all-ok for that subsystem.
