Default Garage419 Returns! This Saturday on the 2009 BullRun Rally, New York to Austin TX!

Yes. It IS true. Garage419 returns this Saturday night. The team has joined the 2009 BullRun Rally from New York City to Austin Texas. Starting on July 11th, for seven days straight, the team will be posting a new episode each night from the road.

For the rally, we've pulled a few strings with our friends over at the Ford Motor Company. We'll be driving a 2010 Ford SVT Raptor. Yes, this thing:

We'll be the first journalists to get behind the wheel of the street legal Baja truck.

So join us along the way. You can follow our progress here:

Notice our team name? Yup - we've got a sponsor too!

How long will it take before Matt kills me on this trip? I give it three days before he at least flips.

If you'll be in the New York City area on Saturday July 11th, join us at the Hotel Gansevoort for our departure in the morning. The same goes to anyone along the route for the seven days. Just come up to either Tom, Matt or myself and say hello, we don't bite, but we may smell.
