Americas Grenadiers in the wild...

[Catpaw4x4]

Just drove 2442 miles across the country from Idaho to Virginia....didn't see a single one.

How did your drive go??

Hello Ccam - question for you. Are you able to park your IG in your garage? What is your garage height. As it is, the IG is about 6 feet 9 inches without the rack, and that gives me only three inches before I damage my car.

I am just fantasizing about buying a Grenadier at this point. My work garage is also 7' and that bums me out.

Me too Wedge. I like the roof rack - it's functional and also makes the IG looks sportier. But, I want to park my car inside. I may have to go without it...

I saw one! I saw one!! Has taken 3800 miles and driving thru at least 4 cities with known "G"s. Of course I saw it as I was driving thru an intersection and no opportunity to take a picture or turn around. You have to keep a sharp eye lookout for them! I'm under the impression from sources that there is only 1 other "G" in my area west of Richmond. Owner is about 40 miles south of me and up on a mountain top
It was White and that is all I could tell in a quick glance. Did offer up a friendly wave !

My first wild sighting was today. Fort Pierce, FL

My first spotting since taking ownership 4 months ago, not in my town nor near town, but out on our vacation today.

You were driving north and we were driving south on a dead roller coaster road of Pioneertown Rd (Pioneertown near Joshua Tree).

We saw you in awe, green and white top, we both honk and you waved out of your window. Beyond excited all I could do was honk.

Good times fellow Granedier owner. Whoever you were!

I was quite surprised to see one in my home town of Kent, Ohio. But that is the only one I have seen.

I was pleasantly surprised to see the reference to Kent. I’m in Akron and on final approach to joining the club. Are you an owner? I have yet to see one on the road.

My daughter starts at KSU in Aug.

Yes, I am an owner. I have met one other owner in the are, but he is not on these forums. A friend of mine just texted me a picture of a Scottish White Grenny in the falls outside of the popcorn place, so that makes a small handful of us in the area. Let me know when you get your truck and we can meet up and share notes.

I’d like that. I’m in the Falls often. I like that Frint Street area.

I hope to take delivery in Philadelphia in a week, maybe two. I’m waiting to understand if the newest software update will be OTA or dealer installed. That will play a role in timing. If all works out - I’ll be in a Britannia Blue with contrasting frame Trialmaster.

The Gren does not have OTA update capability.

The Gren does not have OTA update capability.

And this is why I’m lurking. Learning more about the platform, especially in its first year, will help during ownership. Hoping we get a dealer here in OH.

Per your request. My Grenny in the wild.

still haven't see one other than mine or ones at the dealer's lot.
