Chic Chat We're Back

Well, welcome, everybody. Of course, we're back. Isn't this awesome? Julianne, I'm so excited. We get to do this again. We get to keep doing it, bringing all kinds of content and fun stuff, right? Yes. All the amazing women. It is later in the day for us. And for me, it's Friday. That's right. And I'm using the 30th year celebration cup that the SEMA Business Women's Network had provided for us and gave us at the SEMA Show in 2023. That's awesome. Good old cheers for that, right? Cheers to Friday. All right. Well, we're going to kick this off and sort of get updated on what you've been up to, girl. I mean, we've both been kind of busy doing our thing, but tell me what you've been going. I know you went to EJS and also to Jeep Beach week, so you were there, right? So fill us in. Fill in the listener. What's been going on? Oh, EJS was absolutely wonderful. I had led four trail rides. I hosted one for Sprintech Superchargers and Maxxis Tires. We did a bunch of photo shoots with Maxxis Tires, which was a ton of fun to have a lot of the teams, the new Maxxis team that has been kind of formulated over the last like six to eight months. We have RPM steering that just joined the Maxxis team, so it was awesome to have their new rigs out there because they have been building and building and building everything. Yes. And it was nice to see it in person because I was able to see everything on our social platforms, you know, but once you see those beauties in real life, then it's like, wow, that wow factor kicks in. You're like, man, that's a build if I ever saw one. So we did we did a ton of trails altogether. We got a bunch of pictures and photo shoots with Maxxis. And then I went and did metal masher and I decided to take a little chance and I was doing one of the bigger obstacles with my little two door and I broke the front end. Oh, no, you didn't break again. Come on. Of course, that's always the fun part of it is breaking. And then wait, I have to improve. I have to upgrade now. So but I didn't break it to the point where I couldn't run it still. So I just took it easy for the rest of the week. Yeah. And put her on the carrier and sent her back home and RPM shipped me out the replacement parts ASAP, which was awesome because I was able to get these new shiny, beautiful parts back on the Jeep and just in time for Jeep Beach. Yeah, build them up. And man, I'll tell you, I drove that Jeep straight across the country from Michigan all the way to Daytona, Florida. And she drove like a dream. And it's crazy because everybody always says like, how can that like, how can you even drive that across the country? And I'm like, listen, I've got that suspension so dialed in, right? To where it's like driving a brand new Jeep right off the lot. It really is. And I mean, she hits bumps, you don't even know you hit the bumps. I mean, and I can take her 90 to 100 miles an hour for a couple hours straight. I mean, like I'm burning gas and I'm stopping more. But yeah, she goes fast thanks to the supercharger from Sprint X. And the suspension is all RPM now. So the control arms, all the front end steering, everything is RPM. And they always say like, you can just set it and forget it. And they're not joking. It's okay. So now you're up in Michigan, right? So getting down to Florida, how many days did that take you to get down there? Two. That's not too bad. You know, it's not really that bad. I can
