Chicagoland Meet and Greet

[shooterAMG]

Anyone up for a Northern IL/Southern WI meet and greet? We could meet, chit chat for a bit and then grab lunch, or do it later in the day and make it dinner. Locations are open at this point until we learn where everyone is coming from. I live near Gurnee, but I'm open to driving to meet you guys/gals and see your rigs.


So throwing out a feeler here. I am planning a trip to the Badlands in Indy with my buddy in September, and might be doing the Wheelin' with Feelin' charity run in WI near Wausaw in early October if anyone is interested in turning the meet and greet into meet and wheel.

I am in Kenosha and would love to meet some other owners. Keep us posted on what you are planning. Thanks

 

[shooterAMG]

You bet. I hope we can do something. I'm anxious to see what other owners have done to their trucks and what their experience has been. I know that while I told my wife this truck would cost less overall when compared to my Mercedes, I have since spent 800 bucks on a tonneau and 500 on lights! Let's hope she gets over it quick!

I'm down there 9/23-9/25 if ya end up meeting those days. I will be driving the truck too (instead of flying) so will actually have a raptor for this meet up unlike when I met the TX crew last September. I am in town for work but would gladly join in if possible.

 

[shooterAMG]

I'll actually be at the Badlands in Indy that weekend if you wanted to join us. We'll be camping Friday and Saturday night, wheelin' all day Saturday. I'll be ditching my truck around lunch time and riding with a Jeep for some trails. The Raptor is just too wide and I'm not looking for that much damage on a truck I've had for only a month!

Yeah my truck is pretty much stock. Got one of the first ones. With the 5.4. Would be cool to meet. I lived at Great Lakes for a couple years right near Gurnee. Wife is active navy and I am retired Air Farce. No Mercedes in our collection. One Lincoln Town Car, a Mercury Mariner and the Raptor. Trying to Keep Ford going.

 

[shooterAMG]

Yep, I know the base. Haven't been on base in years though. If you're interested, we're doing that trip in September. Plenty for you and me to do in the dunes and in the rock quarry. Let me know. I have an invite going on Facebook I could get you access to.
