a drive will forsure happen. goal is to do it whenever we have the most volvo's to really show the pride on the road.

i will have my slr camera there (canon rebel xsi for those who care). to take pictures the whole time to post back up here, so we can take some sweet (non blured) ones on the hwy if wanted.

 

directly through chitown is stupid, but through the outter hwy would be fine (avoiding tolls).

if we plan on camping i have 5-10 tents i can bring. and in that case we should just make it a two day thing and do it at a state park....

 

I've got a girlfriend, a sunroof, and a camera....

gf+sunroof+camera= Good highway pics

 

Yeah, I would be down for that as well. I guess the main thing is to see how many definite yeses we have and who would all want to camp. But I am game to do whatever.

 

thats what i had planed on doing. i have some nice sunroof pics of night time hwy shots

 

I want some highway pics for sure.

 

right now the count is 3 for sure, and 2 maybe.

we need 15 for sures and 10 maybes....

 

I got this going in the turbobricks one as well and there seemed to be a few people interested from that one as well. I'll post something to have people send me some RSVP's if they're for sure going to do this.

 

I'm going to create some fake profiles on this site and RSVP with them because I want to go that bad. LOL

 

Should we start a thread that is solely for RSVP's and that's it?

 

dont do that, ill get pissed haha.


and we have a kinda rsvp thread started. i will put together an online form to fill out that will forward to my inbox so i can keep track of it. ill post it live when i get outta the shower (going to take shower now).

 

Haha, I guess that's what the attendees thread basically is...

*ANYONE WHO IS PLANNING ON ATTENDING THE FIRST ANNUAL VOLVO EXTRAVAGANZA, PLEASE ADD AN RSVP IN THE "ATTENDEES; First Anual Mid-West volvo extravaganza" THREAD!*

 

My Black 850 wagon looks like a Hurst.... just say'n

 

dibs on laying in the back then.

 

there is such a thing as a volvo hearse.... they used s80's, and 960's. i think there might be a few 740's layin around to.

 

HAHA. That's funny. That's such a huge window in the back.

 

When I die and they lay me to rest
I want to go to the place that's the best
For my last, final ride
Send me out in the Volvo (the Volvo) in the sky.

 

ha. you come up with that?

 

I saw the picture and its the first thing that came to mind... I've been trying to take it from there but I hit a block so if anyone else wants to take it from there be my guest. If we get an entire parody of the song I'm pretty sure I could record it and find someone to sing it for laughs......

 

That would be great. Classic.
