I'll be there by 8:30 - I'm an hr and 1/2 south. Do I pack a lunch or what?
You can always grab some chow from the Sheetz or Chic-Fil-A across the street. There's also options down in Edinburg; we'll have to stop in at Bo's Xpress to pay the $5 fee and they have food options as well along with an air station to fill your tires back up once we're done.

I wanted to share an event that will be taking place in the DMV for any of you that may be interested. I've known Dean and the crew at INDLR for a few years now and they are top notch. They'll have quite a collective of cool cars attending, including a Grenny:

"In case" something happens enroute, etc - my mobile # is 919.360.7671. See you all tomorrow at the Sheetz in Haymarket!

Great time yesterday, thanks for coming out guys. Sorry I had to bail on the Barrel Oak leg of the trip. Looking forward to doing something like this again soon.
Thanks for putting it together! Barrel Oak was good times, and a great finish to the day.

Happy to report that inspite of the "Titanic Iceberg" scarping sound encounter while on the trail yesterday, no red lights came on on the just under 2 hr drive home. Drove very smoothly.
However, this morning pulling out to the drive way did the dutiful undercarriage and driveway check ... we have a leak :(
On the driveway (paperclip orientated horizontal then vertical to the spot (1 and 2)
Transfer case (3 and 4)
From about 3 weeks ago at mechanic (5-7 - look for the "sheen" of leaking fluid)
The "G" was parked in the drive for a week before - drove other vehicle - no fluid leak evident.
Calling mechanic and connecting with Ineos. Or best just to contact RDS? Any specific referral contact person I should speak with to arrange repairs?
Inspite of this discovery, still very much enjoy the outing!!
Cheers, Donna

If you ring up RDS, I believe the only person working in service is their manager, Mike.

Yeah - just ask for Mike in service. Looks like the pretty standard seal leak that's been reported by a few others.

I did manage to get a nice little scrape on the front bash

Wanted to bump this now that people have been picking up for a few months. I got my first oil change done by RDS two days ago and Mike, the head service guy, said they had delivered at least 200 vehicles. Although a majority were at least an hour away. Anyone in the Philly or greater Mid-Atlantic area getting together for a meet-up?
I am a total noob with replies on this forum. Apologies if this is in the wrong place. Curious if any mid Atlantic owners are interested in a meetup at Rausch Creek or Anthracite? I have wheeled my jeep at both and was wondering if anyone has any interest in that with a Grenadier group? A bit nerve racking to consider trail damage on a $90k vehicle..but YOLO!???
