This EVDL is somewhat tolerant of chit-chat if it's EV related, and ElecTrak topics are fully permissible, especially since many members and some of the administration either currently or previously have owned them.
The tiller is in PDX, but I'm three hours away in Florence. The friend who took the tiller up to the Big Smoke thought that having it up there would make it more attractive to local pickup, or make for cheaper freight, as there wouldn't be the transportation from the coast to add to the expense.
This friend may not be the person your are familiar with, but I'd be betting that he probably knows that person, as he has been active in EV ownership and such since the 1970's. I actually bought two of the three ElecTraks's I've owned from him, as well as the EV that I currently drive, back in 1998.
Interesting aside: John Wayland once test drove my Rabbit EV when it was for sale in Portland, and pronounced it to be "awful". Too bad, he missed out on a vehicle with 5,000 original miles that had always been garaged. I guess it wasn't Datsun enough for him :-)
