Im here for the Jeep Wrangler reveal but looks like I'll get to ask some Polaris people questions. Not on the main floor but just outside the doors to west hall.
LA Auto Show and the SlingShot.

If it had a pretty lady in or near the Slingshot then @EjFord was close by .... if it only had an a couple of gray-haired gentlemen hanging around it that would have been @EjFord and Kentucky Joe (formerly Wisconsin Joe) before they got warmed up

@slingmods, @SlingMods Brandon is there too!

yes but do they have early media passes.....
The go anywhere do what I want passes......That is funny. I'm here for my day job, but will be also getting other ideas for MeanSling. Some exciting developments for 2018. Have a new domestic manufacturer that is really going to allow me to let my ideas flow.

I was at the Launch Party on Monday Night!Funny.. I'm here for the Wrangler reveal in about an hour. The Polaris booth is set up more for the general public this weekend. Well tell you I would never let my show vehicles be this dirty.
I didn't fly in until yesterday afternoon so missed anything SlingShot related. Did have some conversation with designers on two things. Elements that poke your eyes out and two, ways to improve it...

hahaha... not yet. They are having a Press Conference on Thursday... Possibly a new reveal of some sort? hopefully I can pull some of them aside for a chat.

The Jeep reveal was great and I got to talk to allot of the key people. The new Wrangler is very well done. I'm excited to get to play with it for another 7-10 years. The only real surprise for me was the opening in the new half doors. I had an insider tip about 3 years ago and I did some renderings showing this feature. I always thought it was just a concept show vehicle thing and didn't think it would make production. Well look what they did. Very nice. Mark Allen (head of Jeep design) had a very nice conversation. He gets it and did a lot of things that will make sales even better.... I thanked him for moving the Jeep name off the grille and back to the fenders.

I really like that they brought back the two piece door. That opening is pretty trick. What kind of door upper does it have?

its the half doors option. It will have soft uppers like the current design. Asked if the future JT truck would have the option. Could not get an answer. Regardless I would order them as separate option and still get the full doors. Will be expensive but worth it in the end.
Also see the Polaris conference is at 11:10 am
Don't think I can see it and still make it to the airport in time.
Damn! -
So, pardon the question, but what is it about the door with a hole that's cool or functional?
-
New “glory hole” option...

I'll probably need a video demo because what I'm picturing doesn't look comfortable, no matter subjects switching positions...
