This evening I was sitting in front of Advanced Auto, with the truck on jack stands and a wheel off, replacing my starter. I caught site of a very lifted and impressive jeep drive by, pulled a u-turn in the middle of the 4 lane main road, and come back and pulled into the parking lot. He said that he hadn't seen a lifted Trailblazer before (I did correct him right away and tell him it was an Envoy) and he had to get a closer look. We stood around and BS'ed for a half hour or so, and when it was all said and done he invited me to come and crash this event. He told me that last year they had almost 300 trucks show up in the afternoon and evening, with 50 or 60 showing up in the am to wheel. The site says its a Jeep only event, however he told me they normally have a few different vehicles that will travel with them.
I am planning on making the trip, but will be 2 days post surgery so I wont be driving. My wife will get another chance to beat up on my truck.
I am planning on making registration in the morning and join in on the 50 truck convoy to the wheeling site about 30 minutes away. It should definitely be a site to see!Anyone else in the area want to come with me and show these jeep guys what our platform is capable of? I could really use some experienced help, I am still not overly comfortable with the limitations of our platform, and I don't want to rep this truck by being the guy that has to be pulled out all day long.
