It was fun , got to play in all kinds of cool stuff.
FJ , Tacoma , Tundra , 4Runner , Pathfinder , Xterra , Jeeps ect....

The new Chevy Silverado is a real nice truck too.

I checked out the Pathfinder pretty close because there was a discussion about it being a competitor to the 4R and I agree somewhat as far as size goes , but anyone interested in a 4x4 would compete the Xterra with the 4R. The pathfinder is restyled mini van to look like an SUV. Sure hope the 4R does not go in that direction. I also was not to impressed with the Xterra either . Seemed cheap to me , but I'm sure its a good truck. Little ugly and dated looks though.

Thai , MB had no G wagons there. I was kinda bummed . I wanted to check one out.

The big attractions at Toyota were the FJ & Tundra & new Rav4 seemed to have good constant crowds around them. A few really nice looking Camrys , Avalon was a turd as with Highlander. Nobody really looking. There were a few FJ guru's there talking about mods ect.... , pretty cool to listen to.

The Jeeps were pretty cool to look at , the 4dr Wrangler ( Sahara version ) , Commander , GC , a few concepts. Jeep was the last we looked at and the wife about had enough , so I would have liked to spend more time there .

Ford/Dodge .....ehhhh , nothing to report there except for an F450.....MASSIVE TRUCK !!!. The new Explorer was there , nice , very comfy , nice layout ect.... an on road SUV only , reminded me of the Pathfinder.

Tomorrow is the last day. I might go back if I have time.

I can't wait until the NY International Auto Show. I go at least once every year. Did they have Camp Jeep this year?

What exactly is that ?

The Milwaukee show is quite small compared to the big cities.

Basically, there is an offroading/obstacle course that Jeep sets up and you get to ride in one of their vehicles and see how it handles. It has been at the NY Auto Show at least 3 years already. I had the opportunity to ride in a Liberty, Grand Cherkokee, and Wrangler! :D

Its an indoor show at our Midwest Airline convention center.

The Jeep area activities like a rock climbing wall , and stuff like that , nothing special.
 
Falls, did you take any pics? If so please post them. I always love to see stuff from auto shows.
