SEMA 2024 Recap

In this episode, Josh and Alex recount their insane journey to and from SEMA 2024. From driving a revived 1977 Ford Ranchero 950 miles, to rubbing shoulders with industry giants, this trip was one for the books. Here's what you can expect: Podcast Milestone & SEMA First Impressions: We celebrate a podcast milestone and dive into the overwhelming experience that is SEMA, highlighting the incredible networking opportunities. The Ranchero's Road to Redemption (or Ruin): Buckle up for the tale of our 950-mile trek in a Ranchero that hadn't run in 10 years! Expect breakdowns, roadside repairs, and sheer determination. SEMA Days 1-3 - Starstruck & Networking: We share our first impressions of the show, including the Kick-off Breakfast with Jay Leno, finally meeting Liam from Jeep Sheep TV, and making valuable connections at dinners and parties. SEMA Highlights - Interviews & Cool Tech: We recap some of the coolest things we saw at SEMA, including interviews with Hollie Fowler about her Jeep Liberty built for the OnX Off-road Challenge and using a $46,000 Miller welder with Rob Bennett! Plus, a meeting with the team at Spring Tools. The Chaotic Return Trip - Accidents, Altruism & Arrests (Almost): The journey home was even more eventful than the trip there! Free wheel bearings, a minor fender bender with a Tesla, assisting at a real accident scene, getting pulled over, and a much-needed stop for breakfast burritos.
