The Electric Auto Association is a fine group. They do a lot of great work promoting EVs.

Being a member gets you the newsletter (as either paper or electronic.)
I look forward to getting it every month.

If you are working on your own EV conversion, find your local EAA chapter and go meet them! They will be happy to give advice and encouragement.

PS: Run your EV from your own PV panels, or through a renewable energy program, and your car can be virtually pollution-free. Cars use lots of energy, and we should all cut back use, but if you drive, driving an EV is one way to use less energy, and create less pollution.
