| CANCELLED - Southeast G-Treffen - Fall 2014
We are tentatively planning a newly dated visit to the Mercedes-Benz Assembly Plant in Vance, AL for October 17, 2014. This is where the ML, GL and new C-Class are assembled, and will be a repeat of a similar Treffen in 2005. See here for a couple of photos:

I locked the other thread, because interest needs to be included here. After the factory visit on Friday, we will probably do a trail ride in the Talledega National Forest on Saturday.
If you would like to participate, please post a response here; as we need to get enough of a head count to justify putting this together. |

I would love to commit to this. Most likely my truck will be well West in CO, AZ, or NV in October. Time will tell. I would feel terrible showing up in my wife's Toyota. |

Due to full hotels, restaurants and heavy traffic in Tuscaloosa, we're going to change the tentative date to Oct 24. |

If anyone is considering hitting some dirt on the way there or back. On my way to Dallas Tx on Tuesday I ran the Skyway motorway sections south of I20. There were no trail blockages from downed trees and trail was in similar condition as last year. My truck will most likely be in Colorado, Arizona, or Nevada in October? |

Count me in. The Fall colors should be pretty close to perfect at that time. |
