I know there was some brief discussion about what type of clothes to bring for the rally.

DBK and GTJOEY - without opening up the can of worms and hate mail, from what you guys know about what is planned, what would you recommend?

Time to start packing and make sure I have clean socks - time is short :banana

Wear whatever you want. It's going to be August in Detroit. We'll be in manufacturing facilities. Those two things = hot! I'd recommend light clothing for the tour days and cruising, at the C.E.C smarter dress is appropriate. I'll wear something nice to make Joey feel good. Camilo's place is also VERY hot and has no A.C. I was there a few hours the other day and it was me, Francesca, Camilo, his mom, and one other person and I was sweating big time. But it was 90+ outside at the time.

I may be in the minority here, but I was planning on being very casual/sporty (shorts, sandals, t-shirts) - none of this "Pebble Beach casual." Please tell me I don't have to dress like a "lady". :frown I might bring a summery dress for Friday night. It's modest, but not at all "dressy". I don't plan on being captured in a picture. Do I need to reconsider? :ack

I'm w you Piccola. I don't even own any "Pebble Beach casual" clothes. I dress more like the Buffet from Key West than the Buffett from Omaha.

It was 106 F in the Troy plant today. Hope it cools down a little for next week.
