2011 Off-Road Expo
I enjoyed the 2011 Off-Road Expo. I think what made the Expo were the people I traveled with - my good friend Mike Hendrick and my Wife Leidys. Both
great people to spend the day with. Here are a few photos of what we saw on Sunday.
But first, was Score-International at the Off-Road Expo??? I didn't see their booth if they were.![:?:](./images/smilies/puzzled.gif)
Mike and I at 12 noon - 2011 Off-Road Expo

Mike standing next to a military truck like the ones parked at his Father's office when he was in the Military - post WWII.

Leidys making the same Military truck look that much better!

A Toyota Tundra pickup poised for attack!

A recent FOUR WHEELER project truck that I saw traveling north on the 405 in Los Angeles a few months ago. Awesome pickup!

Airbags fully inflated - Can I take this home, please? I promise to "Off-Road" it...

Everyone marveled over this teardrop off-road trailer. Lots of comfortable features...

The model to the left of Leidys came from Pereida, Colombia - near Medillin. She told Leidys that Leidys had lost her Colombian accent. Leidys said,
"No, I didn't lose my Colombian accent!" Things turned tense until the model told Leidys that her Colombian clothing (blue Lycra Jeans) were VERY
COLOMBIAN-looking.

Here is my point of view:
Could this be where DK has been spending all of his money??
![](http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll74/udowinkler/Off%20Road%20Expo/IMG_1967.jpg)
The magnificent men in their flying machines:
![](http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll74/udowinkler/Off%20Road%20Expo/IMG_1955.jpg)
The RC track:
![](http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll74/udowinkler/Off%20Road%20Expo/IMG_1947.jpg)
One could get nosebleed in this rig!
![](http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll74/udowinkler/Off%20Road%20Expo/IMG_1944.jpg)
The perfect Baja vehicle!
![](http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll74/udowinkler/Off%20Road%20Expo/IMG_1932.jpg)
Example of the jeeps shown at the expo:
![](http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll74/udowinkler/Off%20Road%20Expo/IMG_1907.jpg)
Udo with Walker Evans:
![](http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll74/udowinkler/Off%20Road%20Expo/IMG_1920.jpg)
BTW...Ken saw the same things that I did, but the photos are completely different!
Wait til the Tequila Expo next weekend!

Yamaha allowed enthusiasts to "Try Before" they would buy
Leidys liked the feel of this quad.
![](http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/309581_2377992044722_1098240232_32695062_1119967600_n.jpg)
Moving on to the Toy Haulers - We were impressed by how comfortable they are inside!
The "newest style" of wash basins/lavamanos

A nice, stylish kitchen
![](http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/301296_2377994524784_1098240232_32695068_55595892_n.jpg)
Enough room for 2 quads, but not a side-by-side
![](http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/305730_2377994804791_1098240232_32695069_1218096064_n.jpg)
A nice touch! Mike really liked this side-slideout 5th wheel trailer.

Mike is one of our very best friends.

This is a super-cool Jeep JK!
