I assume this position will be based in the LA area?
BTW, how is the CBS pilot you all were shooting in Providence coming?
Hey, any news yet?
I dunno about that job.. however..
At the EV rally last weekend I talked at length with the dealer in San Francisco. The dealer said that Vectrix has been selling very well, and that Vectrix has sold out of their first production run. They've been available for 2 months.
FWIW the dealer in San Francisco deals with high end stuff. They sell Lotus and Porsche cars.
