Default My I-8 friend in San Diego

I just started commuting to school on I-8. Regardless of the time I always see the same silver Insight...Just saying hi! Would love a San Diego meet up!

Let's do it! My insight isn't silver, but I do get a lot of people waving* at me while they pass!

When are you SD'ers available? I'm game for a meet. Anyone have a grid charger installed on their car, I'm gonna pick up one of arctics chargers soon and was wondering if anyone has installed one locally.

I'm working this weekend, but am available evenings.. next weekend is the phoenix drive, which I'm also debating with - I'd like to see if my schedule would allow for it.
