Charlotte Area Meet and Greet - BS Session and Cold Beer
Want to get together for a beer and an appetizer somewhere local to talk shop and plan a trail ride?
Want to talk with some folks about suspension options, take an up-close look at some built trucks, and just generally talk about what's worked and what hasn't. Should be helpful for all of us.
Meet at 5 pm on Sun., Sept 20, at Heist Brewery in NoDa! There's a good size parking lot where we can check out the trucks.
Post up if you think you can make it.

Little interest here so also posted up on Expedition Portal and opened it up to other trucks. Changed date to Sunday at 5:00.

Darn, I missed this. Please post in the Carolina 4runners page on FB. I think you will get more bite.
Let's plan the next meeting.

You guys heard of Cars and Coffee? Every 1st Sat of the month in the morning at NC Music Factory outside of uptown. Next one is Oct. 3rd. We can meet up there.
Open to lower key event too like the one I just missed. OMB brewery? Somewhere to watch some football too?

Will definitely be there for Cars and Coffee. I've never heard of it before but I've got it on my calendar. Wife's due date is 11/4 so I doubt the November date will work for me. We'll figure out something for grabbing a beer too. What part of Charlotte are you in?

It's probably the largest car meet in the area by far. Upwards of 1000 vehicles last month! Starts early 7-8am, crowds gone by 10-11am. I had to park in the gravel lot, right where I belonged ;).
I'm in the Steele Creek area.

I can't make it on the 3rd - going to overland expo - but will definitely try to make it in the future. Looking forward to meeting some locals and seeing some other 4Runners out and about.
Are there usually trucks/suvs/4x4s out at the Cars and Coffee event?

 Damn, I missed this as well! We should have another small get together soon at Sycamore Brewery in South End! They have a large gravel parking lot. I wouldn't mind checking out some other peoples rigs.
