Ok here is the deal to all the Hummer owners on this site. My buddy introduced me to this in a toyota forum. The plan is to purchase a Hummer Flag/banner/pennant or such to pass from owner to owner across the country. At each flag turnover we can have a little meet together. I say we get started in Maine and work our way south to north covering the country. At each flag exchange we can sign/date/forum name on the flag, have some food at a local restaurant/bar etc. The purpose is to make all hummer owners aware of the power of our forum and overall let everyone know there are still many devoted hummer owners! So let me know what you guys think so we can get the ball rolling!!

Here is the link to the Toyota Mr2 relay.

Great idea. I would attend if there were a meet in my area. I'm just not sure if there are enough members to really make it work.

IF your interested try to meet other hummer owners in your area and introduce them to the forum. Im looking for a nice big banner to get us started and when we do decide to start I'll mail it to the starting recipient.

Better book your hotel room! They're calling for a 'heavy snow' winter this year.. whatever that means :giggling:

Also, Good to seem someone from my neck of the woods. We'll have to get the Fargoans to roll down your way for a little wheelin sometime.

The passing is all up to you!! you can drive south to meet up someone in the nexrt town over or trek 100 miles south. The overall thing is to keep the flag moving into other Hummer owners hands and passing it down. They don't have to be part of the Elcova forum at the time but must get an account and post the status of the flag and where its going. Thats really all there is to it. I would like it to become a somewhat gathering of H2 owners at the swap for some cool pics with the flag but as long as it keeps moving. Lets just see how far this little sucker goes LOL:dancingbanana:

OK guys, I'm getting the flag soon and I will post when i receive it. I'm in NH on the MA border. I live right off Rt. 95 and looking to pass the flag to someone, or a group that could meet in MA, CT, RI, ME.
It would be cool to get a group together if possible .

I'm in Central New Jersey so if we get some between us that would work great! I can pass it to South New Jersey or PA.
