DC-area people, I'll probably be in the area this weekend.

Provided that everything goes smoothly, I'll be getting a car not sanctioned by Carmudgeons from a dealer in Chantilly, VA - and yes I expect merciless mockery for it.

That said, will you guys be around to meet up? I have yet to check flights, etc, but I'd like to be there early Saturday or late Friday and be back home by Monday. If I have time, I'll make a quick stop at my best friend's place in Philly.

I still feel like a dick for not meeting any of you when I picked up the ZHP from Passport, but that was really rushed. Hopefully I'll get a chance this time.

I'll be traveling alone.

Road trips are cool... Especially when you're out buying a car somewhere. Jealous...

Hey, if you need a break point near NYC and the timing works out, feel free to stop by.

Unfortunately I'm Florida bound for a long weekend. In the cold it appears.

Just to clarify as a result of the thread split, my trip is cancelled.

Hold on, you're canceling your trip because we split the thread?

I think its because he's not getting the Jeep from the DC area dealership based on what I read in the other thread.

Or maybe it is because you split the thread. . . . good going TD.

And believe it or not, at my yearly review today, I got a 5/5 at work for "communication."

I guess engineers are held to a lower standard.
