Well the trip to the DMV was not smooth, but in the end I have my temp tags and an appointment with the California Highway Patrol for a Vin Verification next month. It took about an hour for the manager of the Santa Monica DMV to come up with a plan. They had to contact the State. If you can find your Engine Block # in advance that would be helpful. It was also an expensive visit! Taxes here are crazy and my little 12 year old Twike cost me $1600 in taxes and fees...
On the up side. This was my first long distance trip. I purchased AAA coverage because they have DMV service, but after wasting an hour there they sent me down to the regular DMV. I was smart and scheduled a back up appointment there!!! saving HOURS. I literally COASTED and peddled the Twike all the way there using only 1 V of energy for 5 miles. My range estimator LIT up when I turner it on to journey home. I think it got as high as 50+ miles. I started with around 378V and ended the trip home with 350 (all uphill). So 10 miles and I think I could make that trip two more times! Pretty amazing! I had no trouble in traffic and actually people let you in because they want to stare longer!
