2013 Sema Show
Omix-ADA and Rugged Ridge today announced that R. Lee Ermey, “The Gunny,” will appear as a guest celebrity at the Off Road Success Center in the Upper South Hall Lobby during the 2013 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, November 5-7.
Best known for his role as Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in the motion picture “Full Metal Jacket,” Ermey, a devoted and retired marine, will hold several autograph sessions throughout the week at the Omix-ADA/Rugged Ridge Off Road Success Center alongside Omix-ADA’s historic military Jeep® collection. The Gunny will be onsite in the Upper South Hall Lobby from 9:30 a.m. – 4 p.m. on Tuesday (11/5), Wednesday (11/6) and Thursday (11/7) as part of his support for a live Jeep® build.
In addition to “The Gunny,” the Off Road Success Center will feature a three-day live build of a custom military-inspired 2013 Jeep® Wrangler JK. A modern interpretation of wartime service Jeeps, this JK pays homage to our veterans and the legendary vehicles that aided our soldiers in countless war victories. The build team will consist of students from technical colleges and Omix-ADA employees.
“We couldn’t be more excited for The Gunny to be part of our patriotic celebration at SEMA this year,” said Henk Van Dongen, Director of Marketing at Omix-ADA. “As one of the most iconic personalities of the armed forces, The Gunny is a natural fit to be featured alongside our historic military Jeep ® collection and live Jeep ® build.”
Returning for its second year at SEMA, the Off-Road Success Center is a space for business owners and decision makers within the Jeep® and off-road market to freely exchange ideas, learn new concepts for success and network with other industry professionals. Omix-ADA invites everyone to come out to the Off Road Success Center to celebrate our veterans, Jeep® heritage and learn how to thrive in the growing Jeep® and off-road market.
