Just trying to stir up some interest in a Houston Fuel Efficiency / Hybrid Club. I guess the first meet would have been the EBH+EV install. So to be consistent, how does the Second Saturday of every month sound?

Jul 14th
Aug 11th
Sep 8th
Oct 13th

Well you get the point. Topics could include modifications/installs, technical questions, driving clinics and just whatever else we can think of. If nothing else... an excuse for beer and pizza.

So next up with be the 14th. Anyone want to join? I have a friend with a Highlander Hybrid that I might try to convince.

Either post to the thread, email me, or send me a PM.

Dan,

I doubt I can make every second saturday of the month, but I'm sure I can make 1 or 2.

July 15th Possible Houston FE / Hybrid club.

Allright, here are all the cross-posts. If anyone can think of anywhere else, let me know. Feel free to post to In5ightCentral or any other community.

Hi, been interested in hypermiling since reading the Motherjones article on Wayne Gerdes. Not sure about some of the riskier techniques, but would like to learn more, especially since it's supposed to work w/ regular cars like mine.

Not sure how much interest you'll get from Houston, I'm new here & relative to most major cities, IMHO it doesn't seem like a very progressive city...I hope to be proven wrong :)

Well, Welcome to Houston and CleanMPG. Glad you found us.

Flacked on the the other meets, but after seeing Eric's work at Hybridfest I started feeling guilty.

So Aug 11th is on, even if it's only me.

Houston Hybrid & Hypermilers Club (aka H³C)

Sat, Aug 11th @ Noon
Sonic Drive-In, Cypress Texas (Houston Cy-Fair)
26044 Highway 290 (Northwest Houston Metro Area)

There are some tables in the center of the sonic and I'll be hanging out with a tan baseball cap reading "CleanMPG.com".

Thats the way to get things going! I added it to the cleanmpg calendar for you.

I think it would be possible for me to come occasionally.

Hopefully I can get some Insight guys there and you can serve as the resident expert
