Kermit and his Kilowatt Kar

That's right - it's not easy being green, but it's going to become a whole lot easier in April when I get my Mini-E. I was notified today by Morristown Mini that I was one of the lucky 500 in NY/NJ chosen to be able to participate in the field trial being conducted by BMW to test an all electric Mini-E. Unlike lucky Californians who will get their cars in February, us East coasters have to wait till April. Nevertheless, I've already had my picture taken next to a Mini-E. Here it is:



More later!

Yours,
Kermit

Mini E Application Status - Wond'ring Aloud

I submitted my application on November 20, the day the application process opened. First, the deadline was Dec. 10, then MiniUSA deferred the deadline to Dec. 24. I haven't heard anything back from MiniUSA at all. Not even an email confirmation that my application was received. I'm starting to be worried.
