Where is z3ro? The free help/come have dinner thread

So for everyone that doesn't know me personally, I'm in sales and i travel quite a bit for work. Most of my travel happens in the north-eastern part of the US as well as a little bit of the midwest. My sale's territories are IL, PA, MD, DE, the lower part of NJ, and the upper part of VA. I usually travel 2 to 3 times a month for a 3 to 5 days at a time.

With that being said, I usually spend my evenings stuck in some hotel or having dinner by myself and, to be honest, it's quite boring. I can only stare at emails for so long per day before I want to pull my hair out. I'm looking to make some changes in the boredness department so I figured I'd start posting in this thread when and where I'll be and maybe I can go grab dinner or beers with you people that are wherever I end up. I'm in no way anything special, my car is pretty much stock, blah blah blah; this is more about connecting with the people that I post messages with on a daily basis as well as seeing what others are doing to there cars and lastly making some new friends. I'm even open to giving you a hand if you're working a specific project and you could use a little help although i don't carry any tools when i travel.

Let me know if you guys think this is a good idea or if anyone is even interested. This was all brought up because I saw a guy driving an FRS through St. Petersburg FL today and i figured I'd rather have dinner with that random stranger and talk about cars then have dinner with the person whom i was working with.

Id rather not post that info but I can say it has nothing to do with cars.

I actually don't mind BWI. I've only ever flown through IAD and DCA so I can't comment on getting through their airports.

Philly is by far the worst though.

Haha :thumbup:

I'd always be up for a beer with a car guy, but it doesn't sound like you ever make it out this far west (CO).

lemme know when you make it to charlotte on a day i've got off. :D or stop by Pep Boys on south blvd and come chill

I'm up in the chicago burbs. If I'm not working (bartender) i am always down for a meetup.

You have it easy! I've been on the road for 45 days, zigzagging across the entire country...I always see guys with twins and wonder if they're part of the forum. Miss my baby...her battery is probably dead by now :(
