I more then likly will NOT be there, truck is in ummm all around the country now lol and I am so busy now to come all that way
Rangeron17s Feb 23 2004, 02:08pm Well if everyones gonna back out, and has other plans.. Those that are wanting to get out and do something we could have a Small little meet/ gathering at Autorama.. Just a toss up idea.. ill be there a 3 days so any days good to me!
Fuzzy Logic Feb 23 2004, 02:12pm As of this momment Count me in. But when we deside where we are goona meet i need an address so i can get on map quest and get directions, cuz i get confused easly, and i hate bein a half hour late because i took a wrong turn........ AS FOR EATIN, IS THERE A MC DONALDS!!!!!!! its cheap... (or burgerking, arbies, toxic hell... etc.)
so to sum up my rambeling, yes i will try my hardest to b there.
ScrapinFrame Feb 23 2004, 06:47pm I knew that everyone would change it up and crap. there shouldn't be any rearraging to make it easier for people to be able to come if you can make it cool if not see ya at the next one. This is the same thing that happened last time. Everyone wants to change it with like a week to go. Well now everybody is gonna do it a month early. I have a good idea. Why dosen't everyone just go to the same spot, hang out by yourself for like 10 min and then leave a note for when ever the next person comes. Or just have a big poster and whenever you get there sign it like "I was here" and then take off. These meets get so frustrating. When someone takes the time to set something up, we all talk about it for like a month, and everyone is like cool, or I can't make it but i'll come to the next one. and all that hoopla, everything ends up getting screwed.
Hey it's cool about autorama I'll come to the show, I won't have the rover, but oh well.
I can understand that everyone has a different scheduals, but come on people start something and stick to it.
Flame me...Peace out
2002BlkKhaos Feb 23 2004, 08:44pm I'll be there, I'll just be leaving a little early. I just want to know where we are meeting in Brighton. There's a park downtown I thought, just the lot isn't too big.
Just someone figure out some place to meet...
There is a Red Robin there...
8522 W Grand River Ave, Brighton, MI 48116
I don't know or remember where it is exactly round abouts in Brighton. Just an idea cause the food was pretty good at the last one in Novi.
Nice job steppin' to the plate there Justin...
Rangeron17s Feb 24 2004, 07:57pm Im not changing nothing.. im just saying thats 2 chances for spring people will have to show to either one or the other!.. myself ill be at both.. ok guys im off to work then im pullin the truck into autorama at 330 wen. ttyl. hope to see a few of you!
ScrapinFrame Feb 24 2004, 10:45pm I didn't mean you were changing anything.
96blue Feb 24 2004, 11:59pm so far i ve got the 3rd off of work and i hope that we keep this date cause its hard for me to get work off........the way its goin i might just have the front of my truck fixed
actually this will be tha first saturday i ve taken off in 3 1/2 years
Rangeron17s Feb 25 2004, 11:40am 3 1/2 years!!!!!! are u crazy!! i would shoot myself.. But we'll try and make it worth your 3 1/2 year wait LOL.. Im showing unless something major happens but i plan to be there 100%.
2002BlkKhaos Feb 25 2004, 12:03pm I met someone at school today that has a civic and likes custom mini trucks. I am talking him into coming with up to the meet just to have more people and give him some ideas. No he is not a sticker charger or a total ricer. Just sayin' I might be bringing some other folks with me for a bigger meet, well a little bigger.
I was wondering on how long you all were planning on staying there and whatnot. Also what time the meet was gunna start gathering? I don't want you guys to change anything on my accord, I was just wondering since I am going to see Trapt at Harpos that night and the doors open there about 7:30ish... I am just tryin to figure out my time frame here.
Well thanks for anymore information on what is going to be happening. It's actually coming up pretty quick seeing as Febuary is almost over.
Later all
98FourCyl Feb 25 2004, 02:11pm I'll also probably be bringing a friend or two. I've got one friend with a turbocharged escort, one with an SVT focus, one with a body kitted Contour, and one with a body kitted Mustang... hopefully I can get ALL of them to come.

Yeah you brought home boy last time with the contour, and I really wnated to check it out but we were so involved into looking at yours, then everybody split after that.
I say bring as many as possible, it's be sweet to have a big crowd.
xxblackxx Feb 25 2004, 06:22pm i should be able to make it - ill try to bring my buddy with the yellow splash again. He's trying to sell it, but i doubt he will by then.
Fuzzy Logic Feb 27 2004, 08:57am Well i have bad news, i was just informed that april 3rd i leave for florida, so i will not be able to make the meet like i had hoped. Sorry
:bawl: :sad2:
BullitRAnger Feb 28 2004, 12:15am everybody bring yer burnin tires so im not the only one in the burnout contest :)
:burnout:
:burnout:
95Rangerxlt Feb 28 2004, 10:30am I'm planning on being there . NATE
RedRanger4.0 Feb 29 2004, 11:47pm i know ppl are saying their gonna come, but we still need a location...
alright, 2002blkkhaos gave an address and a restraunt...
There is a Red Robin there...
8522 W Grand River Ave, Brighton, MI 48116
how does that sound for the location?? idk, i just wanna know where to show up at
96blue Mar 01 2004, 02:23am sounds great
2002BlkKhaos Mar 01 2004, 07:04am I thew it down just to get the ideas rolling, I didn't know what everyone wants to do... We need to make sure there is plenty of room for the meet and whatnot, it looks like this is going to be a little larger than the last one. Who knows... I just dunno how much room there is up there.
More ideas! lol...
Jeff
96blue Mar 01 2004, 01:21pm i have never really been to brighton, i might of stopped there once for gas.....other than that i ve only been through it.....but i think my dad told me that there was a mall just off tha highway or something like that.........if there is theres normally lots of restuarants around a mall and if there isnt .......just a thought
pat
Rangeron17s Mar 01 2004, 04:16pm What it is; is a BIG plaza of stores and the brighton movie's.. Its a huge lot that interconnects with other stores.. heres what were going to do me and scrapin were taking about this.. When you get off the highway coming from detroit turn left those from howell would make a right when exiting the highway at the light (grand river) i believe or something.. The first lot onthe right closest to the expressway and to the road where ve where me meet. from there we decide where we are going to eat. SO BE ON time!!.. hows that sound? problem solved?
96blue Mar 01 2004, 10:44pm 12:30 right
turboplz Mar 02 2004, 11:24am sounds good to me
Dan01XLT Mar 02 2004, 01:36pm Works for me.:thumbsup:
Tuckin Eh Mar 02 2004, 02:27pm thinkin I can maybe even make it fellas. but I'd need to get directions. don't drive around that area in the states too much. Justin hit me up on AIM or something. I wanna see some of your trucks. and bullittranger I'd be smokin my bullitts to if I were bringin the v8 ranger. but she's been retired now. If I go it'll be in my new truck. hell maybe I'll still burn up my bullitts.
Phatras Mar 02 2004, 02:49pm someone hit me up on aim to, Phatmitsu69 I have no clue where im going once i get over that way. Im for sure going even if i have to drive my satty.. Later Rick
Rangeron17s Mar 02 2004, 03:09pm ok.. Sounds good... Ill try to get there 20mins or so early so you guys can have a truck to look for. and being its not stock you shouldn't have a problem.. 12:30 is the time, April 3rd. Down town brighton. First big parking lot. I believe there is a gas station across the street.. Not to hard just look around!

Isnt there a Target or a Kmart right there too?
ericcoon Mar 04 2004, 03:57pm I'll be there and so will 95rangerxlt.
2002BlkKhaos Mar 04 2004, 04:13pm I am now undecided on the whole matter, I might make it and I might not. Something came up and I have no idea what the hell I am going to do about it all. Oh well, shi*t happens... If I don't make it have a good time guys. There is always another meet hopefully end of summertime kinda a summer blow out.
ericcoon Mar 05 2004, 08:04pm Hey is anyone planning on bringing a digital camera? It would be nice to get some pics of everyones trucks or atleast a group shot.
ericcoon Mar 05 2004, 08:06pm We should all throw a hotel party afterwords, cuz I'm sure lots of people aren't gonna want to drive home. Anyone know of any hotels around there??
Phatras Mar 05 2004, 10:51pm Ill be there with my digi camera.. I got a nice size memory card and an extra battery so were good to go.. I need an addy or something of the meeting spot so i can mapquest it though.. Later Rick S
b-mini94 Mar 06 2004, 12:29pm so how far away from ohio is the meet?
2002BlkKhaos Mar 06 2004, 12:36pm I was up in the Brighton area last night... Basicly in the lot that we are going to meet in or tha general area. It's cool around there and it'll be interesting to see you guys draggin' up and down that area. I was up in Pickney actually and damn that is country lol... Me and my buddy went up to Pickney to hang with a few girls, holy hell those roads are messed up there. I still do not know what is gunna go on with me going to that meet or not. Nice area just watch for the cops I saw hella lots of them up there.
Jeff
ericcoon Mar 06 2004, 01:09pm Alright sounds good phatras.
Rangeron17s Mar 06 2004, 05:39pm From the MI/OH border your looking at a good hour and half drive. up 75 to 275 to 96.....
ScrapinFrame Mar 06 2004, 06:02pm I see no reason for me to stay the night, It's no tthat long of a drive for me , bout 40 min.
Phatras Mar 06 2004, 06:19pm I can think of a few Reasons for staying the night
1. can get drunk and not have to drive home
2. Bug the **** out of hotel managment when we take up the whole parking lot two spaces at a time(parking on lines so no hits our rides)
3. More time to hang out and check out the rides
4. Stripper(not just for taking off paint lol)
5. Why the hell not..
If theres enough interest IM in for getting a suit somewhere and having a hotel bash..I mean suites run like 80-100 a night between 8-10 people that 10 bucks.. Im sure with us hanging downtown we can meet some people to come to the bash..lol..
IM ganna try and get my buddy with a dime to come along. Might not be a ranger but its a nice ride.. Later Rick S
2002BlkKhaos Mar 06 2004, 09:22pm I'm not really into doin the whole hotel bash since there isn't sh*t to do downtown when I was there on friday. I was there until about 1 in the morning and the bowling alley you have to wait like an hour to get a lane to play a game, and for some reason the damn theater closes at 10. Kinda sucks... not much else to do cept I would prolly hang with the girls from Pickney I did the other night lol.
ericcoon Mar 06 2004, 10:10pm That's what I'm talking about!! What better way to end the day than 'sipping' on some beers?!
Rangeron17s Mar 07 2004, 01:26am im about 30 mins.. im not going to stay over.. but ill stay late if everyones doing all that... parking LOT pimpin'.. I miggggghht have drag block by then too.. kinda working with scrapin' on that! :)
Tuckin Eh Mar 07 2004, 11:14am if someone could give me exact directions from the border that would be sweet. I always take the tunnel. I really wanna go, I'm just lost over there.
95Rangerxlt Mar 08 2004, 07:46pm Me and ericcoon got like a 2.5 hour drive from were we live so it would be cool if we could crash some were and drink some beer, unless the meets over earlier in the night . Keep me informed
ericcoon Mar 08 2004, 07:49pm Come on everyone, say it slowly with me, BEEEEEEEEERRRRR. MMMMMMM. Now doesn's that sound good?!?
Rangeron17s Mar 08 2004, 07:54pm Yeah. But there is alot of underage guys too.. so we would be running a NICE SIZE risk there.. Nice trucks sitting in a hotel lot with beer.. sounds like trouble BUT IM GAME!! lol dont know if im staying or what not... There is a movie theater right there. ill search the movie listings for the name and address and post it for those of you that need map quest!
Rangeron17s Mar 08 2004, 08:12pm Alright!!! here it IS THIS IS FINAL!! were not doing the last min. b/s...

Time:1230pm - Till when-ever (few people are getting a hotel)
Open to ranger of all makes styles and years!
Here is a MAP of the lot we will be in! its shares a lot with the theater, but the theater is set back.. We will be as close to Grand River as poss. till everyone arrives.(address is at the bottom of the page, for those of you who need map quest)

2002BlkKhaos Mar 08 2004, 09:00pm It is offical now... I am gunna prolly be gone at like 3-4pm... since I am going to a concert at Harpos that night. I'de be cool to hang with you guys, but there isn't **** to do there honestly. I was out there till 2am last weekend and we were bored as hell so we went to the girl's house and messed aorund... See ya all there guys
Dan01XLT Mar 09 2004, 12:45am I have my directions all printed out. I'll have to leave about 3:30 because i have my bowling league that night.

Rangeron17s Mar 10 2004, 05:53am LOL!!!!!!!! did he say 20-50... YEAHHHHHHH right we were lucky to get 8 or so last meet, lets plan on 15.. if more show ill be very surprised! But we had almost 30 post in the ""how many RPS's"" so i think atleast 20-25 should show. COME ON its once a YEAR!
95Rangerxlt Mar 10 2004, 08:08am I dont plan on staying in brighton that night anymore. Because i leave for california the next day so i just wanted to let ericcoon know that or anyone else that wanted to party . NATE
L0wRaNger Mar 10 2004, 11:23pm count me, a couple buddies, 3-4 rangers, and a case of beer in!

96blue Mar 11 2004, 01:44am possible both of my rangers, tha '96 went in tha body shop yesterday, so i think that tha front will be fixed by then and if my buddy and his wife want to come they will be driving tha '89
Dan01XLT Mar 11 2004, 01:54am I'm getting my new tires today and hopefully lowering it again this weekend. Gotta get it ready for the meet.:E
