Anyone interested in joining a caravan of Southend G8s to the Lynnwood GTG this Friday, 19 June, POST UP!

We already have 3 cars and are looking for more! We're meeting at the Bonney Lake Albertson's on HWY 410 at 4:30.

Should be fun!

Hmm... probably not, since it's way out of the way... Bremerton to Lynnwood is fairly direct. (Ferry)

Though I'm kicking around the idea of driving to it vice taking the ferry, to save on the ferry costs. I'm undecided!!

What we BillyBob and DoubleEagle, comeback? :laugh: I'm at the dealer right now getting the recalls done, using there showroom computer while I wait.

Brandon it would be great if you could join up with us in our GROUP OF CARS TRAVELING THE SAME ROUTE AT THE SAME TIME this Friday. We will be leaving from the Albertson's parking lot in Bonney Lake at approximately 4:45pm (1645 just for you), and working our way west to 167 and heading north! It you would like to make it four G8s, that would be great, and a truely unique event! :wink2::pir_flag:

ok...i may actually be able to make it...i think they might let me off of work early on friday. If we do do this ride (lol, i just said do do) then you have to drive behind me, John...so i can spray stuff all over your front end :D

Yes, my car still spews liquid from the exhaust...i've come to the conclusion that its my destroyed cats that are causing that!

:bs: No way! The spray wouldn't be that much of an issue, (I'm sure you'd be willing to wash and detail my G8!:rofl::rofl:), the issue would be not being able to hear my tunes for the entire ride!:gr_jest::gr_jest: Besides, I think we ought arrive in order of rarity of color, ummmm that would make me first, at 9.3% of all GTs produced for MY 09, and you with a PBM at,.....oh yeah, last with the most produced for BOTH MYs!:wink2::pir_flag:

I will be driving instead of taking the ferry, so I will be joining you guys. It gives me slightly more time to detail the car in the morning, too...

Got an address for that Albertson's I can feed into OnStar?

Hey Brenden, Albertson's Bonney Lake is located at 20025 State HWY 410 East, Bonney Lake 98391. Good to see you will be joining us! Is Ranay still coming along? We're sure going to make an impression with 5 G8s showing up together!:wink2::pir_flag:

Oh, forgot to add, we'll be leaving the Albertson's at about 4:45 as its almost an hour drive to Lynnwood from there, see ya then!

Yes, she says she is coming as far as I know, which means Tristen will be as well. (Original game plan was me by myself.)

I just hope there are spots available and somewhere to get good eats afterwards!

You get to the Albertson's early enough and there is a Pizza Hut, Quiznos, and Terryaki place in the same parking lot. The site in Lynnwood is a Taco Time parking lot, so.............????

Dude, I'm driving 90 miles to this thing, I was planning on having a nicer dinner than some freaking tostadas and fish tacos :slap:

Never mind, I just saw it posted in the sticky that the eatery in question after the car show is Red Robin. LOL, damnit, we were just at Red Robin yesterday!!!

(Also I found that the drive will actually be 118 miles total, ouch.)

Quit bitchin', honey. We've already got 34k, what's 100 more miles?

:slap:Quit bitchin', honey. We've already got 34k, what's 100 more miles?

It's just that there's a point where paying for the gas for driving is more expensive than what the ferry would have cost, I think 200+ miles in total is probably going to be well past that point. :slap:

You get to go twice what I'm driving, 55 miles each way for me. I think I'm the piker for this group. Everybody else is beyond that number! But then, you have two drivers. The rest of us are going stag as far as I know! No naps for us!:wink2::pir_flag:

It's not like it's a super long way. Other than stops for gas and chow, I've driven non-stop from here to southern California before. I just wonder how bad the highways are going to be on a Friday afternoon, though.

Having driven this route more than a couple of times, (five years to downtown Seattle before I retired from the Coast Guard), the traffic should be opposite our direction until we hit Seattle proper. Then its a crap shoot. We should be at the tail end of the northbound rush hour traffic when we get there a little after 5pm. Just hope it will be moving with no accidents!:wink2::pir_flag:

You know I didn't say or imply any of that, I just didn't want to have to rely on a ferry schedule.

Plus the WTF factor people get from seeing a bunch of the same cars traveling in a pack.

im taking the ferry with no regrets...saves money AND time. And the ferry schedules are VERY reliable! I've never been delayed by a fairy and i cant count how many times i've taken one.

not a big deal
