Who's In Tampa Bay/Southwest Florida And Up For Mach-E & Coff-E?

[DadzBoyz]

The wait is over!
I'm in the club!
I picked up my MME December 17, 2022!!!

I held off on this until now. That said, it would be great to get our fellow MME owners together for Mach-E & Coff-E.
(I need to have shorts made that say that.)

I've never done this before. That said, I think it would be great to meet and get to know our friends in the area.
I've put together some thoughts and notes, here. Any other ideas are welcome.

So, what or who is in "the area"?
I don't think it matters. Honestly, the more the merrier.
Tampa is a good central location, with I-4, I-75, and I-275 running across and through Tampa Bay.
Tampa would seem to be a reasonable distance from:

Wesley Chapel Odessa Lutz New Port Richey Holiday Hudson Land O' Lakes Tarpon Springs

Davenport Haines City Auburndale Winter Haven Polk City Lakeland Plant City Seffner

St. Petersburg/Clearwater Punta Gorda Port Charlotte Venice Sarasota Bradenton Cape Coral (may be too far) Ft. Meyers (may be too far)

Location
I think Tampa would be a great meeting spot. I can look into locations. Some of the things we'd be looking for, in a location, would include:

• Charging Stations OR we find a mobile charging service and invite them to come out.
• Large Parking Area
• Food/Drink
  • We do not want anyone drinking alcohol and driving.
  • Of course, we have our own built in coolers if needed.
• Location convenient to the interstates
• A covered area in case of rain..... Come on. It's Florida. 10-15 minute monsoons are a daily event in the Spring and Summer.

What Else?
We could invite any number of service providers.

• PPF Company
• Detailers
• EV Mechanics
• @Ford Motor Company
• etc.

I would avoid the guys selling mystery paint treatments that you can light on fire, cook an egg on, etc. You know. The guys that wore the weird microphone, from the car and RV shows in the 1980's...

Anyway, please vote and let us know if you live in the area and would be interested.
