Eastern Truck and Accessories Open House
For the third year in a row I was blessed with the opportunity to represent BDS at the Annual Eastern Truck and Accessories Open House and Customer Appreciation Day. This all day event, held May 23rd at Eastern’s retail location in Norfolk Virginia, is always “the place to be” if you are a truck or jeep enthusiast.

Follow-up From Lima Jamboree
There was another great turn out at this year’s Lima Jamboree despite the cooler temperatures and occasional sprinkles. As always the events rocked, the variety of jeeps and trucks was astonishing and the people were great. The BDS booth generated its share of interest and I got to catch up with old friends and all the great fans of BDS kits that keep spreading the word about our quality, service, and unbeatable lifetime warranty. It’s great to hear so much positive feedback. My favorite part of going to shows is talking to potential new customers and helping them make informed decisions about the right kit for their vehicle and what makes BDS so special. I ran into a couple that I had met at another show that was looking for the right kit for a jeep that they just purchased. After catching up and a good Q& A about their…

We were hoping to get a company personal assault vehicle out of the deal, but that has yet to materialize. [print_link]
