Anyone in Houston?

I temporarily moved from cali to Houston, TX, and ive seen maybe 2 of our trucks around this city. wheres the love? i had to leave my babies back in cali until i find a place to settle down, so no fun for me for the next few years.
But how many are in or around the Houston area? Are there ever any car shows around here?

Re: Anyone in Houston?

You need to drive around more. There are tons of these trucks here. I have never seen another Blazer though, I'd love to run into another 1st gen K5 owner.

Welcome to Houson. There is a rod run in Old Town Spring today. It was postponed due to hurricane Rita but it's happening today. I'm heading out there now....


I know this truck will be there...

I almost made it to the rod run, but had to stick to some prior plans, then went into work.
