    Last NW fling of the year

    I've been thinking I could make this one, but a last minute trip to Boston blows me out of the water. Maybe next time. Have fun!

    Mt Vernon GTG

    Hey Heinz - these gtg's certainly have come a long way from the first one at Carkeek park! Sorry I missed this one - and missed meeting all the new folks. Next one at the grand opening in March???

    Hands up for a GTG in the seattle area

    whuts the name of this pub, Bill? it would be kinda cool to go to the pub...[/QB] It's the Skagit River brewing company. Big open informal place that could accomodate a reaonable sized group and adequate parking in the area as I remember. It's just a bit north of the main Mt. Vernon exit right...

    Hands up for a GTG in the seattle area

    Bummer - just found out we're having house guests that weekend. Just FYI, last I looked, there was a good brew pub in Mt. Vernon, too. Great sausage plate as I recall....

    Hands up for a GTG in the seattle area

    Sounds like a good idea to me given the current monsoon-like weather and the lack of a submarine upgrade.... Weekends of Jan 19 - 20 and Feb 2 - 3 look good for me.

    Working GTG 12/1/01 in Olympia

    >When will the insanity end .......Only Bill knows after he shows us his new ride !!!![/QB] Hey, Heinz - Now if I could just slip one of those slick European TDI's into the Eurovan.... Might just show up in it anyway just in case we need to make a heavy duty beer run!! A refresher on...

    12/1?? I just might be able to make that one! Don't really need to do anything on the car but would like to hang out and lend a hand as necessary.

    Last NW GTG this year ?????

    I'm in if at all possible. Early Nov weekends look good for me. Heinz' ideas are good - lets all give some thought to this before the snow flies.

    Leavenworth OCT 13th

    Sorry to have to miss out on another GTG.... Bummer! We'll just have to have a back yard bbq - or hang out at a good pub if the weather gets really nasty. I could always set up a picnic table in the garage.....

    Leavenworth OCT 13th

    I'm still here and definitely up for at GTG and/or drive. I just might be able to make this one - but plans are always up in the air until the last minute. Your schedule sounds good, Heinz.

    Heinz where are you? Where is everyone?

    The Oct 13 weekend might work - have to double check family plans (things the "boss" assumes I know about....). Picked up a new EuroVan MV about a month ago. Beautiful green, alloys with high performance Dunlops. Sure wish it had a TDI though....

    Heinz where are you? Where is everyone?

    I suspect everyone is just doing late summer family stuff. I'm still bummed about missing the last GTG, so I'll be looking forward to the next - sometime Sept to early Oct???

    need advice

    I agree with Heinz. "Technically" you void the warrantee with a chip (though probably not with a replacement panel air filter of your choice). And the "snow" screen removal is just common sense and quite invisible. But at the very least....trust me....you want a chip...you really want a chip...

    Totalled!!!

    Heinz - Just back from vacation so I've missed all the excitement. Glad you're ok and that you have found a new TDI to replace the bent one.

    Sounds good, Heinz. The weekends of the 21st and 28th work for me.

    NW Fred's TDI CLUB

    Re: NW Fred\'s TDI CLUB How about 10:00 at Les Schwab in Monroe? Heinz - if you are coming, you could swing by my place NLT 9:30 and we'll head up to Monroe on 522. Brandon - great news about the house! It will be an adventure.

    Seattle Area Members: Which Dealer for 10K Service

    Just for additional feedback, my mileage around the greater Seattle area is around 47 - 48mpg, and longer trips (Bay area, Oregon coast, WA coast) have been in the 52 - 56mpg range. I drive smoothly but not necessarily conservatively (but enjoy my chip now and then...), usually shift around...

    NW Fred's TDI CLUB

    Re: NW Fred\'s TDI CLUB This Leavenworth loop drive could be fun. Might just do it myself if nobody else is interested. Another stop on the way back is Roslyn just off I90. I agree about Sunday being the best day from a traffic standpoint. Heinz - keep me posted.
