Woodward Dream Cruise - August 16, 2008 - Detroit, MI
It's a no-brainer for me too, I would much rather see Woodward. I'd bring my 63 T'Bird if I could figure out how to drive three cars, but I help to head-up the Northeast Region of the RidgelineOwnersClub. If I wasn't so involved there it wouldn't be a question as to what I would do. Crossfire all the way. Currently I own two of them and the Honda sits in the driveway. But, like some people here, I help organize and my company helps sponsor the meets, so I kind of have to be there too.
LOL!!! Yes! Honda makes a truck. Best truck I've ever had. We have over 12,000 members on our forum and our last Northeast meet was 27 trucks. National meet over 45 trucks last year in St. Louis. Like this site, it's a great bunch people with a common interest. You'd be surprised how many people own Ridgelines.

WOW......that's totally a no-brainer for me!

Tony, we will be going on the Friday morning, in time to get to the Museum in the afternoon. If you are interested, we can plan something when we get closer to that date (Port Perry, Ontario).

Just found this kind of interesting.......
Google has been mapping Detroit and it's suburbs. If you go to Google maps (not Google earth!) and look at detroit. When you select "Street View", any area in blue allows you to "navigate" the streets from street level just like you're in your car.
We plan to be on the southwest corner of 13 mile and Woodward....the big lot!
we'll see if the link to the map works.......

I'm committed to going as well.
It would probably be me and the wife, Rich And Liz.
My sister lives in Milford, Mi. and we will be staying there.
We would be interested in taking the convoy up from Illinois.
I've heard about the event but never have attended and I'm looking forward to it.

As we get close to the event (late July) Me and FP will determine who all from Ill is going and we will then coordinate meeting places and times starting as far north as Crystal Lake , Ill and southward to Indiana. We will have meeting spots along I-294 South from Hinsdale as we leave Illinois.
I have added you and Liz to the "attending list" Gary
So far attending and maybe attending
