Check this post, http://www.xterraownersclub.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=55;t=000204 maybe the east coasters can meet up with midwest and have one huge honkin' x-caravan.

P.S. Ian, unfortunately if we got a WRX I would have to knock out a front tooth and move to a trailer park. And Chris doesn't have enough hair to grow a mullet!

she's not coming to GOX.

Yep...I'll post over there. Thanks for the heads up. I'd love to start gathering some folks from back East. Could be a long lonely drive all bt my lonesome. The wife probably would not come. And I don't think the 8 month old baby would be too fond of the trip. (Not yet....but someday).

I'm gonna go this year for sure. I'm gettin' all excited. Can't wait. 1143 mile / 20 hour drive one way!

Yeah and this is a big deal how 1300 miles here and I am not the farthest.

Go to hell you bastards I am not here to amuse you. I HATE ALL OF YOU!!!!!

Need a chain for your spare

I think he's still a little sour about that whole ordeal.

You guy's forgot that in addition to releasing the E-brake, to make sure that you also look to make sure that Ivan Locks his front hubs so that he is in 4WD unlike the first part of Hell's Revenge.

VaderX did well even in 2WD.

me has to feel like slackerx. there nuthing like runnings shine in the Appalachianses with my truck.

i was sad and mad at the easyness of the roads. i didn't even saw any possum too shoot and eat. i only see cows, but no possum. ( althogh, ther was a ded cow on Berr Town road that was cool to see.)

yew boys don't now whut it like to 4wd with the ATF hawling ass after yew in the Appalachianes at night. now that is fun and hard.

i did like tawking and funnin with Xterra owners frum across the countrie. but, it wusn't enough to perswade me to come back. i did win sum cool stuff at the hamburger picnic and the smell of the hot springs remind me of home but i will not be coming back to Colorado. it wusn't to my standardes.

I'm just kidding. I know quite a few people from the South and they are nothing like the above post. Just a joke.

That cow was sleeping, not dead.

Yeah, it had eaten a REALLY big meal and took a nap becuase it was SO FULL . Then we saw the Llama Man and had Rainbow Man go swimming in the lake.

Such were the days......

Todd

what kind of $$$ do you guys think i would need in savings for this x-capade?

$50 a day plus lodging usually works, but it can be done cheaper.

2 nights include free food with the SWXC Chili Cookout and CALMINI BBQ. Dinner at the Outlaw can run $20 per person plus $100 for drinks. Restaurants range from cheap to 4-star expensive.

Now that's $100 per day for drinks? Right?

Give or take a few dollars yes.

BTW for the record I left Illinois with a little over 500 dollars and made it back with around 30.00 or so. That includes gas, hotel for one night during the trek out, and then food and drink for the whole time, and gifts for family and friends. My lodging had already been paid for before we left.

I'm in for GOX this year. We might have a small X caravan from indy...

GOX is a blast. The trails are very scenic and all the old ruins add to the atmosphere. As far as the 4 wheeling, the trails are somewhat different and all have challanging sections, especially Black Bear.

The social "gatherings", with different folk from all over the country, are unique to say the least.

See you in 03,

Ivor

i think XOC is a blast as well but i think you mean GOX

GIFTS FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS!??? Like hell there are getting any of MY beer.

where do most people stay? I'd like to make a res. if I can.

Check Ouray Colorado\'s Website for lodging and other info.

If anyone out there needs some local info let me know, I live 45 minutes away from Ouray. And since you will be only 45 minutes away from Telluride, anyone who's got an extra day you HAVE to come check this little town out.

Have a day.

Oh when we make the black bear pass we stop in. From what I hear its a nice little town.

With the recent events, is it safe to say that GOX is still going to happen?

Even if Ian didn't go I think most of us would still show up anyway.
It's just better when Ian plans it.

That's good news. I'm planning on going and it takes a bit of planning to get there from Virginia. I'm really looking forward to it.

Steve

I don't understand, recent events? Did I miss something is Ian NOT going to GOX this time?
