Re:Virginia Chapter #7 DTR meeting

For some reason, the Dodge dealer is a little hesitant to have us meet there. I can't figure these people out when there is a chance we could toss them some business, they still don't want to participate. Oh well, you know what I say to them and if you don't, ask me the next time you see me.<br><br>Anyway, the backup location to meet is in the Pottery parking lot just about a mile east of the dealership lot. We can meet in the lot right on Rt 60 till everyone gets there and then go to eat. I will get over there early to see what is open for lunch time feasts and have a list ready.<br><br>Hope to see you there.<br><br>Joel

So what do you think would happen if we all just &quot;Happened&quot; to show up at the dealer for a little &quot;Tire Kicking&quot; &amp; &quot;Test Driving&quot; session.

Re:Virginia Chapter #7 DTR meeting

I'm tired of asking and am not going to waste my time any more. I have asked three dealers now and they looked at me like I was stupid. While that may be the case, I am still offering them a chance to possibly make a sale on some parts or maybe one will have the truck the right person is looking for. I could tell you what I think but it would just look like: Take your (censored) (censored) and (censored) it (censored) (censored) (censored) and then (censored) it (censored) (censored) shine. <br><br>NOTE: I spelled &quot;censored&quot; every time so Jack's program would not go into maximum smoke minimum efficiency mode. Kinda like when Ozzy gets on the TV.

Re:Virginia Chapter #7 DTR meeting

Well, they say they have a &quot;top notch&quot; diesel mechanic and I thought I would offer them a chance to make a buck or two selling performance parts to people that still trust the dealer.<br><br>OH WELL, their loss.

Re:Virginia Chapter #7 DTR meeting

I guess we could leave the Pottery parking lot and file by the dealership just for S's and G's.

Re:Virginia Chapter #7 DTR meeting

Seems as though the Dodge dealer has had a change of heart today or maybe they finally recognized the opportunity they might miss.<br>Anyhow, they just called me and said it would be fine for all of us to meet there Saturday morning. I told them we would probably start showing up around 11:00 or so. We can meet there and BS a while and by then, I will have a list of eating establishments for us to choose from. He said they will more than likely have one side of the lot cleared out for us to park and get a good photo op.<br>So come on down to Williamsburg Dodge this Saturday and lets have a good time.<br>For those of you coming up or down I 64, take the 231A exit on to Rt 607. Take 607 towards Rt 60 to the light. Make a left at the light and the dealer is about a mile on the right side on Rt 60.<br>If you need further direction, please let me know.<br><br>NOTE to JohnP: This is a brand new parking lot.
