Hello! This is Megan from Bestop’s Marketing Department.

This weekend Bestop will be attending Jeep Beach in Daytona Florida at the Daytona Speedway. If you will be attending please stop by and say hi to myself and Brad Bricker our East Coast Sales Manager.

Bestop will be on hand to answer any questions inside the Jeepers Den booth in the middle of the speedway on Saturday April 28th and then will be on the beach watching all the Jeeps cruise by on Sunday April 29th. Other Bestop retailers that are attending are Quadratec and Morris Motors. I look forward to seeing you there!

See you in Daytona!

From the cluttered desk where chris writes…

What can I say, I love forums.  Love to lurk around reading what’s going on in the world without getting any of it on me.  Jeep forums are my favorite and there is no shortage of them on the web.  I have a good reason for this love.  I drive a TJ.  Oh and I met my husband on a forum dedicated to Wrangers.

A quick google (is that a real word now?  Verb, noun?) brings up a massive list of both national and local forums.  Some are specific to Wranglers, others cover all makes of jeep.  So, in the interest of jeeps… and possible love (hey it could happen) here’s a partial list of what I found.

Wrangler Forum

Jeepz.com

My Jeep Rocks - a local forum to my area, they have great t-shirts!!

Jeep Forum - top of the list on google and has a free App!! (Jeep Forum App)

JK Forum

And check this site out -

Plowsite.com - It’s a site about snow and ice management with an area for jeeps and their use as plows.  Awesome!

Scrambler forum…CJ8 forum

For our military jeep lovers there are also a plethora of forums, for those who serve/served or those who love jeeps that served.

Military Jeepers

G503.com

There are even some very specific jeep forums such as JurassicParkJeep.com and the International Full Sized Jeep Association or ifsja.org.  And don’t forget, Quadratec, 4WD, etc have their forums as well.

So think up a cool username and get yourself an account at one or tons of the forums out there.  But please, for the love of God, do not start a thread about how JK drivers don’t wave to you.

The Bestop Team out at the Moab Easter Jeep Week is straggling back to the office now, but we’ve got their snapshots from their trail runs and beer runs. Looks like a good time! We put them ina quick little slideshow for you all:

Update from Moab: Wednesday was the Bestop sponsored trail run at Area BFE.  Unfortunately, no photos from that event to share - looks like everyone was a bit too busy driving.

Thursday, you can find Bestop at the Spanish Trail Area for Day 1 of the Easter Jeep Safari Vendor Show. Walk into the Arena and hang a left to the Bestop booth to get all the Bestop information you need. Megan, Jim, Larry, George and Bill look forward to seeing you!

The 1st annual Bestop Moab Pub Crawl is under way. Join in if you want!

The first stop was the Moab Brewery, and right now they’re off to Woody’s, then Zax, then Eddie McStiffs, then FrankieD’s, and eventually they’ll roll into the Rio. Leave your Jeep someplace safe and walk! Watch for George, our engineer, and Ken. Kennie’s the loud one.

Here’s a photo of George, at stop number one:

If you’re in Kuwait or somewhere else in that neighborhood of the world, you can now get Bestop products for your truck and Jeep.

It snowed overnight in Moab. And that’s going to be creating some extra fun out on the trails today. Watch for more than the normal amount of damage. As Ken Holbrook, our Senior VP of Having Fun, says: “snow and rock climbing = broken jeeps and bones. ”

Britta, who worked here in Bestop Marketing for five years, has left the building. And the company. And the video project. So after starring in 65 videos for Bestop, here’s the fun little one we did on our last shoot. Enjoy:

It all kicks off April 1st this year, in beautiful Moab, Utah.

It’s rapidly becoming the biggest and most important Jeep event around, and Bestop has been going for years. This year, once again, we’ll have a booth in the Arena (April 5th and 6th), and we’ll sponsor a few trail runs. So if you’re in Moab, you’ll definitely see us around.

Here are a few snapshots from previous events, including the one where our friends from Jeep let us park their fancy show vehicles in our booth. “Park” them. They were smart and took the keys.

It’s TruckFest season again. These are the shows put on by 4Wheel Parts, and retailers like us, all over the country. It’s a great event: free to attend, lots of prizes and deals, and a chance to see some great new products for Jeeps and trucks.

The Honolulu one just happened over the weekend, and Boss Jim sent a few photos back. (It’s nice of Jim to volunteer for this event again. It would really have been horrible to have to fly all the way to Hawaii and play some golf on the off-day. Whew. Thanks for saving me from that, boss!).

Here’s the calendar for TruckFest events. The next one is in Puyallup, Washington in a couple of weeks.
