I just wanted to express my deepest gratitude to Terry and his staff at the Rambler Ranch. They put a lot of time, labor, and money into making this Eagle Motel trip happen. The Ranch is basically the holy grail of every AMC and to see it in person was truly an out of this world experience! I can't say thank you enough for all you did for us this weekend!!

I want to echo that also.  Organizing something like this has the potential to be very stressful (especially dealing with all of us high strung AMC owners lol) but Terry was running around with a big smile on his face the whole weekend.  You can tell he loves putting this together and experiencing it.  Terry invited us to come out to the Ranch on Friday so we could really immerse ourselves in AMCs, and we were out there for almost 8 hours soaking it all in.  Thanks Terry, Roger, and everyone else involved in a great weekend.

 :) It was my pleasure to host this event! It is worth the time and effort to see all the Eagles out on the road and parked at the Eagle Motel. This event is like a family reunion where everyone gets along and has a good time! Thanks to all for the Eagle Nest members that made the effort to join us, most of them drove long distances, and I am sure they all had a good time. I plan on doing this again in 2014 so maybe we can get a few more Eagle Nester's to join us.

Terry, I did not get to thank you personally, so I do it here.  Thanks for your efforts and for sharing your collection.  I agree with everyone and I had a great time.  Lord willing, I will be there in 2 years, maybe with my '82 4 door sedan....Rich

I would love to go to one of these but the trip from the east coast just drains me. The 4 day trip from Montana last year in my Eagle wore me out...Maybe one day...

Let's see here... Eagle Motel is 18 hours (plus border time) and 1175 miles away.  At least it's in the right time zone, though.  ;D

I'd either have to convince my wife that this would make a good family vacation, or somehow secure a week of "me time".

Terry, the Rambler Ranch always amazes! I have visited the Ranch in the last 6 years more than any other automobile-oriented establishment and every time there are new sights to see. Many thanks for your wonderful hospitality. :eagle:

Air-conditioning is so cool!
