    There have been a few Chicagoland ExPo Meet & Greets, last couple in the Downers Grove area.

    Might be worth the trip to meet some people. If anyone hears of another getting set-up, please post a note in here.

    I somehow became the driving force for the last couple ExPo M&Gs, so I'll probably be again once I see enough chatter about people wanting one.

    I try to remember to post all the LOST Jeeps events here.

    Sometimes I post my planned solo driveway wrenching days, always good to have people swing by to chat, wrench, and share some beers.

    Dang, I should have posted. Spent all Sunday in the driveway playing with wheels. I have a cheap tire changer in my garage. Ended up prepping 4 wheels for my good van, 2 wheels for the parts van to be towed away on, sanding 2 rims to be painted and deciding to trash 4 rims and 2 tires.
