KICKER Returned to OC Jeep Week with the XRV and Much More

OCEAN CITY, MD (08.30.2021) – KICKER returned as the title sponsor of Ocean City Jeep Week, held August 26-29 at the Ocean City Convention Center and around the Ocean City area.

The super impressive KICKER XRV at a truck wash in Breezewood, PA heading to the event.

The Audio Works crew was busy throughout the event doing Jeep installations and under the KICKER tents.

KICKER’s XRV (Xtreme Recreational Vehicle) made the 1400 mile trek to OC Jeep Week and set up in front of the Convention Center entrance. The 82-foot big rig is a rolling showroom, that displayed the full line of KICKER audio products for UTV, motorcycle, marine and auto. The XRV’s upgraded Boom Room is larger and louder and built to withstand the torture emanating from 40,000 watts of power.

The XRV Boom Room was packed with people waiting outside to experience the 40,000 watt KICKER system!

Jermey Wynn, KICKER Events and Promotions Manager, was behind the XRV Wheel with Josh Alexander at the Co-pilot. Matt Matheson, KICKER Eastern Regional, and Training Specialist Ken Bundy traveled from KICKER HQ to work the event.

Opus Marketing, KICKER Rep Firm in the area, worked the event with product sales and logistic support. Jamie White’s Opus Marketing Team on site included White, Bruno Berg, Chuck Ottati and Todd Ess.

A few days before 0C JEEP Week Jeremy Wynn celebrated a birthday. The Opus team presented Jeremy with a remote control rig that he can use at events that pulls an ice chest cooler.

Next to the XRV, authorized KICKER dealer Audio Works (Newark DE) installed audio systems on-site for the entire show. Audio Works offered several KICKER packages made especially for Jeeps. Owner Darren Thomas, with members of his sales and installation team, had Jeep installations going under KICKER tents throughout the event. At OC JEEP Week the Audio Works team scheduled numerous appoints for jobs at their Newark DE store that is 90 miles from Atlantic City.

White related “We look forward to this event every year. It’s especially special when our friends KICKER can make it out and even more fun when they bring the impressive XRV to OC JEEP Week. During the event we had some storms again and it was hot. Even though we are all sunburned, tired and worn out we all left Ocean City with one of our best event experiences.”

Opus created limited edition license plates as a gift for Jeepers that showed family values at the event. Two dozen license plates were given to deserving Jeepers.

This group of US Marines, who had a booth at the event, received one of the LVNLOUD license plate.

OC Jeep Week had a nonstop event schedule plan for every day of the show, that began with 300 Jeepers cruising the Ocean City sand at the Beach Crawl. The Jeep Jam trail and obstacle course were daily attractions, as was a Kids Zone, live DJ, vendors row and more.

At the end of Jeep Week, KICKER chose the winner of the “Livin’ Loud” award, a package that included two sets of speakers, amplification, loaded enclosure and wire. Winners were chosen for the quality of their KICKER installation and their Livin’ Loud attitude.
