This morning around 7:30 I saw a nice white Ford SMB, with Aluminess box on San Vicente in Santa Monica, CA. Tried to catch up but was stopped at the light.

I was surprised to see them building a rig this early for the 2018 factory opening.

But it turns out to be for the plant groundbreaking ceremony on July 27, 2016.
The SMB 4x4 was featured front and center during the press event and in the Master Upfitter video presentation.
Nice press coverage!

That is badA$$. I have to say, however, I'm not too impressed with how SMB is mounting the LED light bar straight to the sheet metal in the roof. It reminds me of the early issues with side awnings.

Anyone with a burnt orange SMb headed east in VT/NH on US 7 on Saturday?

Also I noticed RV's boon docking behind Bennington Station in Bennington VT Sunday 6 am... Not sure it's an official boondocks site but nice quiet place

SMB Sightings

Just saw this really nice SMB hardtop from Colorado at the end of my street in the holiday Inn park lot here in North Vancouver BC
Is it anybody from here?
