Fireguy50 06-28-2003, 07:51 PM It's by Ann Arbor. I'll be there, my truck will be there
scheki 07-08-2003, 12:44 AM I plan on going if I get the chance.
Queen of the Forest 07-08-2003, 01:26 AM I should be able to make it. :thumbup
Fireguy50 07-08-2003, 02:07 AM I'll be there :thumbup
Queen of the Forest 07-18-2003, 04:00 PM I think we need to start 'organizing' for this? I want to go, but at that distance I really don't want to drive alone. Fireguy, maybe we could meet up in Lansing somewhere along 96 and convoy down? Just need to figure out times and such on when to leave, meet, etc.
Try and get as MANY members to go as we can, with or without your broncos. As some don't have one yet. ;)
This could be a lot of fun! :thumbup
Nomad357 07-18-2003, 04:13 PM I might be able to make it. My schedule is so crazy I never know from week to week what I am doing.:banghead
Queen of the Forest 07-18-2003, 04:18 PM Sweet! :thumbup
Maybe, sometime before the snow flies, we can try and get a color run together? That would be nice, something that even the stockers can run. :thumbup
Well seeing how almost ALL the trails in Michigan a Honda Accord can run down! LOL
Hmmmmmmm, maybe a trip to the Mounds? Since most everyone is within an hour or 2 from there. :D
Nomad357 07-18-2003, 04:21 PM We should all drive the road to Bobby Gay Lake, up in the Upper Peninsula. You need a serious rig to get thru that road. We used to just walk it with a canoe to cross the bad spots.
My cousin made a bobcat that was mounted on a early bronco frame and set 8 feet off the ground, we made it down the road with that, but just barely.:toothless
Maybe next summer all the maniacs could gather up there for a long weekend and see who can tear up their rig more.:thumbup
Queen of the Forest 07-18-2003, 04:24 PM Yeah, I hear the trails up there are wicked! A friend of mine runs up there all lot. And most of their runs, they require a MINIMUM tire size of 38's!!!
But something should most deffinatley need to be planned for next summer. :thumbup
scheki 07-20-2003, 01:27 AM I am not sure yat exactly if i will be able to make the show. Not sure if there is a wedding or something but i will go if I am free. I would to be notified of any new Michigan members here so I can add them to my mailing list along with others.
Where you from Nomad?
Tweeter 07-21-2003, 11:40 AM It Looks like I will be going to this with my Father in-law. I told him about it this weekend and he was wanting to go. It is about 15 miles away from my house. It is also the wifes birthday. so It should be fun.
As far as the Michigan member you should have a PM from me.:D
Queen of the Forest 07-21-2003, 04:24 PM IF my bronco makes it.....I'll be there :thumbup
I cant wait! :D
tripleh87 07-23-2003, 12:41 AM i was planning on being at the bronco fest, but unfortuntely for me, one of my friend's that i've known for 7 years is getting married on the same day. damn my luck.

Jon Foster 08-20-2003, 02:49 AM If you guys can remind me, I'll see if we can go too. Although I'll have to drive my wife's Blazer unless I can swap out the trans by then...
I need front fenders and a core support so I can get new paint on by winter.
Jon.
Queen of the Forest 08-20-2003, 06:03 PM So far it looks like I'll be going. :thumbup It'll be me and the kids and a up front WARNING that my son will talk your ears off!!

Jon Foster 09-06-2003, 12:58 AM We're going but I'm not sure what time on Saturday (tomorrow). I have to get all the kids ready to go... I think we're going to hit Camping World while we're down there too. I just wish I had some money to spend... I still need two front fenders and a core support for my 81 so I can get some damn paint on it before winter... I'm tired of looking at the rust!
Jon.
Fireguy50 09-06-2003, 01:01 AM remember the Michigan football trafic :banghead
Jon Foster 09-09-2003, 01:24 AM So who went to the Bronco Fest??? We drove into the parking lot and left... There were only a couple of 60's trucks on the lawn when we got there (Saturday 4'ish) and a couple of people packing up...
We stopped by Camping World on the way out and found way too many things to spend money on so we bolted as quickly as possible before going broke.
Jon.
Fireguy50 09-09-2003, 02:49 AM 4ish :banghead
I was there from 9-2:30. I bolted to avoid the Michigan game trafic.
Tweeter 09-09-2003, 10:47 AM I was there from about 11:00 to 12:30 than took the wife out to lunch for her Birthday.
scheki 09-09-2003, 01:07 PM i split at 1 to go watch the kids.
Nomad357 09-09-2003, 01:34 PM I didn't get to go, I am still trying to get my mother-in-laws diesel escort to run. Man what a pain.:banghead
Midnight Rider 09-09-2003, 06:22 PM I was there from 9:30 to 3:00 then took the wife to dinner and watched the U of M traffic jam 23.
