Yeah, I was wondering where the original thread went to also.

Anyway. I am in the Cleveland area. I'll be leaving on Friday and driving to Maxus--it's 6 hours from here, so I am planning on a non-stop.

If you MN/IL people are stopping here for sure, I will hook up with the caravan.

It's just me in my car--no carpoolers. Unless someone needs a ride. It is a 4 seater after all.

hey, so yeah... i put off getting a hotel room wayyyyy too much, and i talked to the hotel, and the block that maxus had blocked off is all booked, and the regular prices are pretty high....

soooo what i was wondering was... would anyone want to cut their hotel costs down by roughly 50%? hector and i from chicago will be traveling out there, and if someone wants to allow us to sleep in their room, we will split the costs, and it save EVERYONE money hector and i dont mind sleeping on the floor either, we will bring sleeping bags...

and according to the maxus website, each room is allowed up to 5 adults. So if anyone is willing to allow hector and i crash in their rooms, PLEASE PM ME!! thanks!

Some of us are meeting up with Jason(00MAXSE) in OH, staying the night and heading out to maxus from there. I think that's what the plan is. I'm not up to speed on it myself.

Hey Dave, try talking to Tom from WI, I think he is by himself, and you might be able to room with him if he is still going.

Hey Guys/Gals,

Yeah I won't be heading to Maxus this year. I'm currently jobless so money is the big factor. I'll be watching the org and Chi Nissan forums for all your updates and pics, though. Looks like it will be a good turn-out...

I'll try to take as many pics as possible, and I'm sure the org will have TONS of updates.
