Nashville New Model Auto Show this weekend.

[Cottontail]

What a magnificently mediocre show!! I go to the the NAIAS Auto Show in Detroit every January, so I guess this was bound to be much less impressive. The Jeep display was fine...3 JKs, 1 Liberty, 1 Grand Cherokee, and maybe a Patriot. Really didn't pay much attention to anything by the JK and the Grand.

They had a display of vintage Datsun/Nissan race cars and Z cars. Saw a couple Datsuns like the one Wingnut had. They also had vintage Corvettes and Mustangs on display.

Sat in the new Vette, a Ford King Ranch Super Duty 350, the Grand Cherokee, and a handful of other ones my 4 year old wanted to sit in. I guess for $6 and a free subscription to Motor Trend, it wasn't bad.

Here is a shot of me and Avery in front of the Jeep display.

that would have been cool.

i really wouldnt mind having a liberty with a couple inches of lift and 30's

Pretty cool.

How was the vette? Comfortable?

Show still runs tomorrow and Sunday, Joe. You have time to make it.

Mark, the Vette wasn't bad for legs and arms, but at 6'6", with the top down, the top of the windshield is in my line of sight. I may be able to drop the seat to make me fit, but the power was off on the floor model, so the power seats wouldn't move.

I would definately drive that 350 Super Duty King Ranch though. Hell of a tow vehicle for my XJ!

i'm chevy all the way.

they haven't always made the right engineering choices but who has eh?

someday want to get me a duramax or an older 3500 HD and make my own tow rig with an old detroit diesel in it.
