There are several Hoosiers here.
I'm sure they'll speak up eventually.
The NAXJA Midwest Chapter welcomes you.
Thick skin isn't mandatory, but is highly recommended.:jester:

Yep ... sorry I missed you while I was in town ...

sounds like there is alot of people from around here. I was thinking about joining but I don't want to drive to Chicago to get together. Maybe if there were get togethers in this area I would be more willing to become a member.

Chicago is not the capitol of the MWC... we have members from Ohio to Wisconsin to Oklahoma and everywhere in between, and we wheel all over. Don't let the geographical enormity of the MWC Army dissuade you from joining the best Jeep club on Earth.

I have been looking for a local club. But there are not any in my area. Plus I'm looking for a family club where my son can learn to wheel correctly. And one which does thing with trails. And that works to benifit wheeler all over not just that one club. This is very hard to find in a local small club. I just want to make sure my son will be able to wheel the same spots I take him today.

finding a small local club that can benefit all wheelers across the country is going to be a tough task. they just do not usually have the resources.
that's why a club like NAXJA is a great thing. Not only do we have smaller chapters that can act like a smaller local club, we also have the full organization with the resources to make a difference in helping keep trails across the country open.
my 2 cents

But - being one of the guys who knows a few in the MWC - Ill have to say that this is a great bunch o people to wheel with - and they pull through for anyone that needs it.

XJonaBudget, I think.
He has the exact paint scheme but he is in Kentucky.
There is another XJ with the same paint on the southside of Indy.
I used to see it around town some from distances.
Always seems to show up in naxja event pics, but I never remember seeing the Jeep there.

I'm from Northwest Indiana (Cedar Lake) but I go to school at Purdue University in West Lafayette. We have a club at school and we go to the Badlands pretty often. You don't have to go to Purdue to join either. What color is your XJ?

That's the one. It's for sale in a yard on Arlington just north of Thompson. I stopped and looked at it that other day and they're asking a ridiculous amount for it, but whatever. Knew I'd seen it around here somewhere.
