Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Massachusetts electric vehicle advisor?

[Valerie Paul (valerie.paul]

Hi Fred,

I can't help with how to rent one... but I do own a leaf (an older model
which would not make the journey from Providence to Portland easy) and live
in co-housing... feel free to reach out directly.We are in the initial
stages of figuring out how to do some car sharing and encourage more BEV's.

BTW, you'll be driving right by BSC... if time allows, please come for a
visit.
