On July 16, 2020, we had another informative and entertaining Virtual Meetup and Happy Hour with the hosts of the YouTube channels “Rich Rebuilds” and “The Electrified Garage to chat about servicing Teslas.  On June 25, we had our first Virtual Happy Hour with the crew. This time we were introduced to a new member of the group, Mike Kohlman.  Mike worked 20 years with Ford as a Master Technician, where he received Ford certification to work on hybrids and EVs.

Chris Salvo had some breaking news during the Virtual Happy Hour, announcing that, in addition to their shop in New Hampshire, they plan to open a new Electrified Garage soon in Ocala, Florida soon. More details to follow.

Here's some screenshots:

Rich Benoit, host of  the YouTube channel, "Rich Rebuilds," with literally millions of views, joined us from his home in New Hampshire.

I want to thank Angelia Link, one of our Central Region Event Coordinators, and president of The Villages Tesla Group, for arranging for the "Rich Rebuilds" crew to join us.

Jim joined us from orbit on the bridge of the Death Star

Not to be out done, well-traveled Alec joined us all the way from Jupiter.

Even Elon crashed the party! (Not really)

Here I am sitting in my spacious driveway in front of my collection of vintage Model Ss

Chis and Chad show off their cool looking Electrified Garage tee shirts to Mike, who is too newly arrived to have one yet. ;-)
