I've been busy trying to get my truck ready for a summer road trip. Is there anybody else in the Central Fl area?

I think there is a tractor pull or diesel drag, coming up soon in Brooksville. I will see what I can find about it. Even if we just meet there to meet and BS.


From another site I participate in.

April 4th is another truck pull in Brooksville Fl, if anyone is interested in coming there are 2 hotels that give deep discounts on rooms, there are a few nice camp grounds near by. gona have a bunch of diesels to fill all the classes!!!!

Let me see what I got going on and see if we can make the trip and how far. I can try to get a MIL discount as well. Sounds like fun.

Boy, this is the most activity on the Florida members forum in quite a while! I see loads of Dodge's around, but no one ever seems to want to meet and BS etc. I am in West Palm Beach though, and peoples' attitudes aren't so great down these ways. You folks further north and west are much easier going. I'd love to go to Gainesville, but don't think it's going to happen this year unfortunately. Between school, work and family I'm stretched a little thin. There is a guy from Lakeland who'se doing a crew cab conversion that I know is trying to get it done for Gainesville. His user name is Moneytalks. Keep an eye out for him if you're up there, he's doing a heck of a job on that truck.
