LG on Jim Lerher’s Newshour
As Oil Prices Rise, Car Companies Go Electric
We grace the screen 5:04 through 5:48
My utmost gratitude to Felix Kramer of Calcars for leading the film crew to our shop and letting us host the interview.
Plug-in hybrids are featured only briefly and the general emphasis of the feature remains that electric vehicles are in the future. This is entirely untrue.
You, reader, can drive on electricity with a fully electric vehicle, like those produced at the beginning of the ZEV mandate such as the Toyota RAV4 EV, or a compromise like the plug-in Prius, which we produce on a regular basis now. All it takes is the enthusiasm and curiosity to search beyond the mainstream showroom.
For more information from Felix Kramer about plug-in hybrids, reference Calcars’ website
For more information on plugging in by any means necessary, come to one of our SF Electric Vehicle Association meetings, the first Saturday of every month
For more information on liberating your Prius’ battery from the gas tank, come to my talk this Friday, the fourth of July, at the Marin County Fair

Carolyn preaches Plug-In Hybrids, Marin County Fair, Fourth of July
Plug-In Hybrid Workshop
Marin County Fair
July 4th, 4:30pm
“Green Life” Exhibit Hall
What better way to celebrate our country than to discuss energy independence? LG’s own will preach on the plug-in revolution and how you can convert your Prius today, using elegantly simple technology. Yes, we’d like better batteries. Yes, we’d like automakers to produce them themselves. But why regret what we don’t have, when something perfectly terrific is already here?
Learn more about Carolyn unleashing hybrids from gasoline for almost two years. The revolution is here, and it’s in a plug.

Gas bumming you out? Electric Vehicle Assn Meeting Saturday June 7th
Did you know that LG hosts the San Francisco Electric Vehicle Association meetings the first Saturday of every month? And did you know that yet another one of these inspiring meetings is this Saturday, June 7th?
If you are interested in burning less gas or no gas at all, consider attending this meeting! Since we started, attendance has risen to over 40 people per event. 
Meet others who know and care about electric vehicles. Touch and test drive electric vehicles on the road now, from Chevrolet’s S10 stock electric pickup (with an EV1 motor!) to our own plug-in hybrid Prius. We also have a Geo Metro converted to electric in the shop. Toyota’s RAV4 EV, electric bikes and scooters, the super-fast Tango—all of these phenomenal vehicles so often hidden from public view—are yours to explore. More important are the people behind them. We are in the midst of a profound and timely revolution in transportation. JOIN US!
Saturday, June 7th, 11-1
Luscious Garage, 459 Clementina SF

ART IN THE SHOP: Sarah Lyon “Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere”
Sarah Lyon is from Louisville, KY, some 2000 miles from our walls and the fair city in which they stand. Her photography, also of Louisville, is however suited so well for these walls that I have never seen so many visitors to the shop, whether for service or conversation, so totally absorbed by them. The large format images are both restful and striking, and altogether beautiful. Please join us for the enthusiastic opening:
Saturday, May 24th, 3-8pm at Luscious Garage
