So I figure that I-40 is a common route for those coming from SC NC VA and maybe even from some of the more northern states too. Who wants to meet up along the way and start Convoys? We can try and set times to meet at major points and make the convoy grow.

I personally will be starting on the north side of Spartanburg SC on I-26 then going up to Ashville NC and getting on I-40 there. I've met Casey on 40 before just west of where they cross.

How about we make a list of the basic route everybody will be taking and see if there are similarities. If somebody will be driving in the convoy but isn't on the forums just make a note. Like a buddy of mine will be driving his own vehicle so I'll put Tay-Lo (+1)

Having a CB would very useful, just to BS and say you need to make a pit stop. (Casey you should probably get your coax fixed and antenna tuned)

Lets try and keep a common format:
Name - Day of travel - basic route

Tay-Lo (+1) - Wednesday - I-26 to I-40

I have no idea when I am leaving.. I will look into it more when it gets closer. I might or might not be a part of this convoy. I would love to be though.. I would have to beat you guys to where I intercept 40, unless I go back to Asheville.. Maybe wednesday morning pick Camby up, drive through Asheville, pick parts up and stroll on through.

I'll be on the road Tuesday afternoon. Be coming through into 40 at the butt crack of Wednesday.

So I'll likely be before any convoys.

If anyone is leaving that early I'd be more than happy to meet up. Might find a hotel Tuesday night and continue Wednesday morning. Haven't decided yet.
