i spoke to one rep for about 10 mins was all. and yes, by the time we finally got there, most of the drawings were done. would have been nice if they'd done 2. maybe one in the morn about 11:30 am or so and another at 1:30 or 2pm. that way others who couldn't get there still had a chance to tt some of them and enjoy the spiffy freebies. but thanks nick for the pen.

I had a chance to talk to a couple of the reps. I forget they're names. The one I talked to the most was the head of product quality. He says he lives in Brighton. Another one, Jeff Strausser (sp?), I spoke to him for a bit. I was informed by my boss today that he's gonna be coming up to my work soon cuz he never got a ride. We'll see how that goes.

The pic is to much, the story behind it is actually quit different from what it looks. We had all changed and were preparing for Dave and Busters, Carrie laid back on the bed and said something to the effect she was really hungry (for turbo we all know she really ment) I was messing with the camera since I planned on bringing it and took the pic. Never said anything about it or thought anything about it till we dled them all later onto Hope's computer and well its FUNNY!! Carrie deserves an award for that.Hey Devlop, get us all some yo yos and pens for an exchange for a ride in the Turboooohhhhh Vibe heh.

I loved having all the GM presence there as well. I really hoped they liked being there as much as we liked having them there.

You are one of the only people in the world with a turbo charged Vibe so you're obviously going to get alot of attention How does it feel to be one in a handfull?I talked with the guy in the green sweater and sun glasses for a good 10 minutes a couple of times. First about my car and then about the autocross. He asked me about the projector headlamps I told him they should manufacure the headlamps and the roof rack removal kit so I could do a few part swaps with mine.

Ditto Ditto Ditto all the great comments about the meet. Just got back from a family vacation that started with the Genvibe meet. I haven't read all the meet posts in this thread, but I enjoyed looking at your fine, fine cars and the show cars. My 13-year son wants the bright blue one.

What did you think about having the large GM presence?I'm guessing there was a Meet Schedule/agenda published somewhere on Genvibe in advance -- what was going to happen on Meet day and what time, but I never saw it--probably my fault--and we arrived very late (2 pm)--definitely my fault. We were driving up from Indiana, so we never planned to be there by 10, but we still enjoyed seeing all the cars, and especially Devlop's awesome turbo and show cars. Jeff Strausser pointed out the 'rust under the rear hatch weatherstripping-covered by warranty' problem on my car, which was VERY worth the entire trip!
