Someone from this site (or at least leaving cards directing to this site) left a card on my marauder Friday in Springfield VA. Anyone claim the card? I've seen another 04 running around, but figured I would ask if they were around here and would like to let me know who they are. It's tough getting recognition around this joint, would absolutely love to catch up with another 04 for some mild traffic fun!

Maybe 'Bluerauder'/Charlie, 'Merc'/Mark, or 'Breadfan'/Mike??
I'm sure that a CAM member will fess up....
I'm in Hampton, VA. How far away is Springfield?
Who carded your car?
Not me, Couldn't be me, Naw not me

Welcome aboard. Always good to have a new Marauder fan. I am sure the mystery will reveal itself. In the meantime enjoy the hospitality and the info on your Marauder. Dennis:beer:

Spiders,
On the site masthead you will find a link to "spread the love." You can start carding M. Marauders your own self. :party: Dennis

Welcome to the Collective Spiders. You will be assimilated, resistance to moding is futile.
Check out the 'Northeast Forums' there is a Thread in there for our (CAM) December Meet. Come hang out with fellow Marauder owners in your area, talk cars, bs, eat, drink beer and scratch. What else could you ask for...:beer:

How could I have missed this! :)
It was me, I was at the Franconia Metro on my way to the airport early Friday morning when I spotted your car. Pen I had didn't work so I just left a blank card.
It's rare to see a Marauder around town so I always card here. :)
I had a feeling it was a member!
Edit: I just realized you're a new member, so the card was responsible for you coming here? Well, hope you enjoy it, some great people here and you'll learn way to much about your car and the things that can make it even faster. ;)
I was on my way to Dearborn that day for a weekend of work (fun...not) which ended up being a weekend where I spotted about 7 or 8 Marauders!
PS: There's always room in the line - at the CAM meets the more the merrier. :)

Will definitely be showing up for the meet Breadfan!! I have an absolute passion for the Marauder! And I'm impressed that there were so many locals, honestly hadn't run into many, though I know there is one in Manassas who I've seen at Yorkshire Rest a few times, and one I have run across on the parkway near the springfield mall occasionally, but he has out of state plates so I figure he's military headed for belvior...
Anyway, black friday, yes well some of us have to work, and VRE wasn't running so drove all the way into springfield from centreville. Ick...
Can't wait to meet you guys, sounds silly but the car is the one high point of my day, even if I only get to drive it back and forth to the train station now. But watch out on weekends!! Out and about and trying not to get tickets!:rolleyes:
Thanks again for the invite, and I'm sure I'll be pestering you guys for a few months getting mine up to par. Been eyeing the blower but figured I should wait until the warranty is up first. Already discovered the comfort zone over 100, shocking how comfortable this car is at speed!

Sounds interesting Blurauder, looking forward to meeting you and seeing what you've got. May give me ideas for my own mods along the way... none yet, but the wheels are turning already.
Hey Breadfan, you use that metro often? There's a black 04 with TN plates near there. Know him by chance?

Spiders,
That would be me, the infamous Big House. Welcome the Cam'er collective...let the mods begin. But the Darkside is what my baby is know as. She's a hybrid 03...with the goodies of both models. I am going to do my best to make the White Marsh meet but my boss (not the wife this time) is fond of letting me off work. For those that live inside the beltway ought try for a mini meet at some point in time. Just throwing that one out there.

Have had the pleasure of trying to catch up to you from a distance, and admittedly, enjoying the excuse to move right along. Although I've had a couple brushes with state boys near the junction with 95. Have to remember that they drive those little things now! heh heh
So your a transient to the area or just keeping the plates...? Sorry, nosey....

Hey Charlie...Do you want to go through the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel with me???...:eek: BAWAHHHHHHHHHHH!
I just gave some twirp in a Porsche an EAR FULL the other night...He was cutting in and out of traffic on 695 near Timonium, Md....
I waited until his window was right next to my exhaust pipes and I then punched it...he almost broke his neck whipping his head around to see WTF made all that noise!
After I had left him for dead, Marianne looked over at me and said: "What was that all about??"
I said: "The Porsche driver just needed some Marauder Discipline."
I just kept smiling, then she said: "You know that you are a REDNECK?
I said: "YEP...I KNOW!":D
Can't wait to see what you've 'got up your sleeve'!

Spidey,
I am deployed military. because od that I don't have to register my car in the state where I live but where I am from. Same with my taxes. I am from a state tax exempt state so I don't pay state taxes on my primary job. The secondary one, DC hits me pretty hard.

Property, realestate, state income, federal income, and so on and so on and so on...

Yep Big House everyone keeps asking me if I'm you whenever I go on base! I have texas tags cause I got mine on a 6 month tdy there and the 6 has ohio tags. I refuse to put Va tags or another sticker in the window to keep the 2 texas ones company. Sorry can't make the CAM meet :(

Hey Charlie...Do you want to go through the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel with me???...:eek: BAWAHHHHHHHHHHH!
No problem ... this time I'll roll down the windows to get the full effect. :D I plan to go through the "old Tunnel" using the 495-50-3-97-895 route. I oughta be passing the junction of 97 & Route 100 near the airport around 12 Noon. :up:
