We are headed out on Wednesday morning. I want to be down there early enough to grab dinner before settling down in the show field. Watching the vendors and show guys set up is part of the fun for us.
It is also the only time of year I catch up with a lot of good Mopar people.
We will leave the show just before lunch on Sunday to start the 10 hour drive home.
Right now if we take the RC, space for parts will be limited, but I am sure I can fit a few small interior parts. There is a case to take the lifted white crew cab, we call the Vanilla Gorilla. Charlotte and I will weight the pros and cons and make a final decision at the last minute.
Neither has A/C, but the RC does have tinted windows which helps cut down the left arm tan.

Hi Ollie! Sorry I've been absent for awhile. Busy with other projects and the job/life. I plan on being at the overflowing Cornucopia of Chrysler Friday and Saturday all day. I may even have an entry into the show field (unfortunately not the Cummins truck). Looking forward to seeing everybody!
I'll probably start at my buddy's stand near gate 1.
Have a safe journey from VT.

I was starting to get worried about you Tim, until T-man said he spoke with you a few weeks ago.
We will be in the show field in the RC most likely or maybe the lifted white crew.
My buddy from Maine with the 5 vendor spots is too busy with life this summer to make it down, so that hang out spot is gone this year.

I've been driving around with a set of hubcaps for your d150 f8r a couple months now. Can't wait to give them toy you on Saturday.

Uncertain when I will get there, if I do. Depends on work, which is currently deep in the land of aggression up north. I would like to make it Saturday with the FireWagon, but may just show up Friday as a spectator.

Oh, fiddlesticks... Tell that railroad company to take a day off. Nobody's riding it but hobo's, anyway.

I will be in the show field in the Ramcharger section with the "diamond ice blue" Gauntlet.
Or wandering around the show.
OR taking Hellcat rides through the drift course with my daughter....
Just look for the guy who has not gotten a hair cut this century, unless you include getting it wrapped around the creeper wheels, caught on fire or trapped in the seatbelt latch. That will be me.
T-man will be in the show field too with his "brick" on Sat.. I am guessing he will be in the "'81-93 stock truck" class. He will be the guy with the old, one eyed pirate beagle in tow most likely.
Leave a note on my windshield under the wiper wth a time/place to meet up or a # to call, if you would like. It is nice to hang with some DTR'ers in person.

I will have ice cold bottled water and beer in the show field at the RC.
That is a key when making a hangout spot on a hot day.

My chest freezer is full of Founder's All Day IPA and VT craft beer, water bottles and some juice boxes for my Lil' Mopar Tech. I am getting them cold before stocking the cooler tomorrow.
My girlfriend has some time off work. Her daughter and husband are in town from Colorado with their new baby, so the dogs will have plenty of people to hang with and the shop will be safe. The VT girls know how to use rifles, hand guns, shotguns, ETC.
