Hi. Here's what I'm pretty sure is an unusual request, aimed at the NJ dwellers among the forum. My wife and I live in Oregon and we got our Model S 85D (aka Lucille) about four months ago. Not surprisingly, all our friends and family are excited and full of questions. My father, who is in his mid-80's and not in the best of shape, is among the most excited and curious. I'd love for Dad to ride in a Model S but he and the rest of my family live near Red Bank, NJ.
We are heading to Red Bank for a family wedding in a couple of weeks. We considered driving across the country so we could tour him around in Lucille but we can't take that much time. I could try to schedule a test drive there but the NJ Tesla stores where I could do that are pretty far north of where they live and I know he won't want to make the trip. So... here's my request:
Is there anyone near Red Bank with a Model S who would be willing to drive Dad and me around for 15-20 minutes and let him experience the wow-ness of these fabulous cars we own? He and my mom live in Oceanport, which is near Parkway exit 105, but we could meet you anywhere in the Red Bank/Rumson area. The wedding is Saturday, Aug 29th, and the best days for an outing with Dad would be Sunday or Monday the 30th or 31st. Thanks for even considering this.
If one of you needs an excuse to take a short drive, this could be it and that would be great; if not, Dad will never know about it and I will understand completely. Also, if one of you has a better idea of how to get my old man into a Model S for 15 minutes, let me know!
