Is Great Lakes Crossing a pretty central spot?

I'd like to make this one, for once...lol. Im in Harrison Township and would be willing to travel ~45 minutes or so.

probably the best suggestion- a very smart location with lots of space, choices for eating, and easy access- followed by a quick cruise down I-75. :thumbsup: :twocents:

Awesome!!

Now I dont want any judgement made of me or my truck; my Envoy is nearly bone stock aside from a GM bug shield, tinted windows, and vent visors. Oh yeah, and my "Four Winns" vinyl graphic on my back window :biggrin:

Ha! Yeah but Ive had my 'Voy since 2004 :lipsrsealed: Im just not real big on mods... Well, back in 2005/2006 I installed an OEM Navigation head unit. Thats about the extent of how far I'd go :biggrin:

I would like to one day cut off my factory fart can resonator and straight pipe it out the side. Does that count as a mod? lol

Great Lakes Crossing sounds like a great place to me too! Count me in for Mall Crawling :rotfl:
Plenty of space to park, walk, and they have a Bass Pro shop :wootwoot:

I've always been a fan of Sbarro and Great Steak & Potato Co... come to think of it, there are so many good places in there for food...Is Johnny Rockets still in there, by chance? In the years of the place being open, I've never set foot inside of the Rainforest Cafe.

I would say yes. But let's have a plan incase of inclement weather.
So are we doing the 20th or 21st?


It's up to you guys!

I need to worry. I'll be driving the Malibu instead of the Envoy. :lipsrsealed:

Agreed :biggrin:

As to the day, either the 20th or 21st is fine by me! Depending on the time, I'd suggest the 20th- it may be less crouded then.

I don't think I can do the 20th. If we can do the 21st in the morning, that would be optimal.

Morning sounds like a great idea! Is there any possibility of having a tailgating party in the lot somewhere? :undecided: :celebrate:

I'd still prefer Friday the 20th. The Saturday crowd on the 2nd to last day of the show really doesn't do it for me.
But I'm just one vote, concensus rules... I'm in either way.:thumbsup:

I think I would prefer the 20th also
Chris said the 20th as well
I am pretty sure I can get another one from our last meet. Ronnie Even though he's a Tahoe guy now

My vote is Friday. I'd be walking the fine line with child abuse if we went on Saturday. :whistle: Ask my wife! :dielaugh:

I'd also prefer Friday, if we do decide to meet up at the Auto Show. We always get prime parking in the Millinder Center, since mom works at the Renaissance Center. 34 years at GM and counting :wootwoot:

So we would be doing both? I wouldn't be able to rendevous with the rest of you at Great Lakes, but we would still be going to the auto show. Friday still sounds good to me, but I need to tell my buddy to take the day off, if possible. It would be me, the folks, and possibly that one friend of mine.

I assumed everyone wanted to meet up for lunch at Great Lakes Crossing. Am I wrong?

I'd have to wait for the old man to get back from work, which could be anywhere from 11:30-2:30ish; unless he ends up not wanting to go to the auto show (he never really gives us a straight answer until we're telling him we're getting ready to go), in which case the rest of us should be able to make it out to Great Lakes Crossing for lunch.

And to be honest, I thought they were each individual ideas for meets...:confused:

If we did do the 20th, it'd have to be around 3 PM for me. What about the weekend before? It'd be cool to do it on the 15th.

The earlier the better for me. 12 would be better than 3pm.

If we can do 4 PM, that would be awesome. I can make that for sure.
