I wanted to bring this to everyone's attention again. Abscate, do you have a date in mind?
Blackbart, how about joining this time? I know you are dying to go on a road trip!

I'll send a USPS flat rate box of MVS shirts out to abscate to hand out free on first-come first-serve basis.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

I’m away next two weekends but it’s only 1 hour to Taste NY ( last years venue) from Bridgeport.

I pass right by 850LPT on the way.

Since I leave a car in Bridgeport I just have to make sure I bring a Volvo

Let’s try to coordinate on one of Firefox s NJ to NH returns on a Sunday? Is that ok with everyone or is Sunday off-limits?

Thanks for considering me. My multi-state driving plans are a bit hectic right now. I'll be passing through Sun 4/17/22 and maybe Thurs 4/21 or Fri 4/22.

Would be fun to see you all if you excuse my broken exhaust, removed interior trim panels, mismatched left front turn signal, removed right side roof rack trim, mismatched rear right seat bottom material, generally dirty interior, possibly sticking rear brake pads or parking shoes, VVT check engine light, and poor little floor vent actuator which keeps occasionally whirring, trying to move itself into position and failing, over and over. Some day I'll fix these things...
