We’re headed out in a couple of hours to Las Vegas, courtesy of our new friends at General Motors. We’ll be checking out the 2006 SEMA show, the premier show for automotive specialties. Stay tuned all day for live photos and posts from the convention center floor as we report on anything and everything we find interesting. We’ll also (hopefully) get some up-close-and-personal time with a few designers and marketing folk at GM to ask a couple questions about the brand, the decisions they’re making and the future of the automotive industry from their perspective. Later tonight we’ll be covering a very special event at 11:59pm (PST), although we don’t expect you to stay up in sweaty-anticipation, keep your eyes peeled for special announcements. Viva Las Vegas!
