Testimonials

From my first rainy day newbie ride (which was no newbie ride) to the public events, community outreaches, behind the scenes quiet helping hands and forever friendships formed, this group has touched my heart and enriched my life in more ways than I ever imagined. PBV is more than a Jeep Club. They choose to participate in initiatives that positively impact others and help make a difference in our own communities. Blessed to be part of this family. ♥️

I joined the Jeep life before PBV was created. I bounced around, trying to find a place where I fit in. When I eventually switched my allegiance (for lack of a better term 🤣) to Pine Barren I was welcomed with open arms! I know it was a surprise to many but I finally felt like I’d found a place to call home. The friendships that have grown from joining have helped to shape me into a better person, a better Jeeper and in all honesty a happier person. This group comes together for not only their own but for anyone and anything that needs support in a way I’ve never experienced before.

PBV is amazing. They are definitely my family and I don't know where I'd be without them.

PBV means to me: From showing up on a random trail ride and not knowing anybody, I was welcomed like we were all friends for a very long time. I was accepted for the person that I am and it didn't matter if I had a 500 shitbox or a 45000 dollar built up jeep. I have made so many friends and we are all a family. This club is a no judgement zone and accepts you for who you are!!! This is the most loyal and caring club I have ever been in!!!

Hands down the best group around... they have welcomed me and my son in to the club and treat us like family which means a lot... Erin Keiser Szabo even helped me with a drive by.. My son and I just love going to as many events as possible because my sons get to play outside like a kid should, and he loves seeing all the doggies too... thank you for everything

I was a member of another Jeep club that treated me as an outcast and I was very uncomfortable when with them. I saw PBV at other Jeep outings so I reached out to Erin Keiser Szabo and Steve Szabo to join and they opened their arms and took me in. From the first time I meet everyone at an event I was welcomed and made to feel like family and the rest is history. This club will do anything to help anyone in the drop of a hat without hesitating. Love this Club. WE ARE FAMILY.

I remember fondly meeting Steve, Justin and their families as they were asked to go over trails and recovery gear basics for another club's rookie run. I added some of my knowledge into the discussion and they were kind enough to let me. I could tell right away that these were my kind of folks, their love for the Pines and passion regarding helping those who were newer to the trails or offroading in general. I also liked the fact that on PBV, the only dumb question is one that isn't asked. Unlike other groups I followed, if a question was asked about ez trails or other things, there was never a snide remark, just helpful information. I have met and invited people to join the club, have many fond memories and plan on future memories with those I know and those I will have the privilege to get to know! I also love to see our future generations enjoying the outdoors and the offroading scene, from children to teens and young adults. I had it set up to name my Jeep "Plan B" but some of the younger members started calling me Mr. Herb.

PBV is a “Gateway”.. to Freedom, Fun & Friendships! PBV fosters education and awareness toward ecological/environmental respect & Community Care. Involvement with this special Club & Culture architected by Steve and Erin could be life-altering… (for the better) Jeeper Beware.

When my wife & I first got on to the Jeep scene over 3 years ago we joined many Jeep clubs & attended some events. Just felt like we walked around with strangers. Then we joined PBV & started going to events. Felt welcomed every time we would show up. Steve would walk up & shake my hand & always say glad to see & how’s it going. Then Erin, Carly, John (we’ll have good XJ chats), Hippie, Ryan, etc. Too many to list. All the members made us feel so welcome. Even on our private FB pages if sometime came up, vehicle break down, personal incident, the group would reach to see if needed anything. The events that help communities are great. We been involved in so many with the club. Feels great to help others. The club isn’t about banners, stickers & trophies, it’s more like a family. We have so much fun & look forward this coming year as I have already put evey event on my calendar.
It you want Jeep fun, great friendship, and enjoy helping the community this the Jeep club for you. Even if you don’t have a Jeep you will be welcomed to join. PBV strong!!
