Pick a place and a time, and see what kind of response you get. A "meet & eat" at a truck stop or a restaurant often works well, we've had good turnout at those types of events. A "bomb day" would be great if you have a big enough garage to host it.

have you thought of anything yet??? Man it has been awhile since i have been to a meet (fall). sure would be nice to have another. I would gladly host one at my place but the small two car garage gets kinda crowed with 10-15 people and two trucks.

i cant have anything at my house at least not in the near future, the warmer months would be better we could chill outback not much room in the house. i have been out of town for work lately so have not had much of a chance to find somewhere to go but now that im home and should be local for the most part i could get on top of that. the guy i was going to get a shop with is out of work due to surgery so that got postponed for the time being. but again if anyone has any suggestions feel free to throw em out there and ill look into it and post back.

how about a dyno day, i could find a few places that have dynos would just have to get in touch with them to see if they were cool with a bunch of diesels coming out. if we go that route could also look into other things to do in the area such as resturants and different activites to keep everyone entertained. ill post back later with any and all places i find that we could possibly have something. keep the ideas coming guys

I'm hoping to use my mother in-laws place again in the spring. There's a 2 car garage with a pit and a pool in the back yard. Hopefully after the thaw and when my truck is done. But I would be up for a winter meet as long as you all don't mind me bringing my Xterra.

at the moment these are just ideas out there, but who would run on the dyno and who wouldnt if we went that route? out here around my way all i can think of so far is meeting at a resturant/bar sorta deal eat, play pool watch whatever game and or fight is on tv and shoot the stuff. as im sure others would agree a bomb day would be great but trouble is finding somewhere to have it. . .
