If you and your Dad don't want to do the burgers let me know. I have plenty of burger meat and will gladly bring it and a grill.

Ok we're gonna be there with the camper, we're gonna try this again....maybe we won't be the only ones sitting in the field with a closed event.

We will do burgers, stay overnight, we're bringing firewood,...anyone that has a long way home or just doesn't want to drive home, can just stay in the extra bed in the camper and leave in the morning , and that will allow you to drink as well

I have a 1st genner coming i met on youtube, Zskibo, Zack archer, Josh?, Ricky, Dave, 2wd Nick?? (is he alive??)...we should have an excellent turnout of 1st gens.

Especially since the camper will be towed by G-bob , which is a scary thought but it wouldn't be the same if we drove a silly 3rd gen to a meet where there may be a darn good 1st gen turnout, wiring up the brake controller today after shool

Do you know if they charge you anything to bring a camper? I was thinking about it but camping without any power is no fun. We don't have a generator for ours. Last year we stayed at a campground 15 mins from there during the event that got rained out.

No they don't charge you to stay in a camper.....they just ask you clean up the mess from the fire the next morning.

find a local place where you can rent a generator maybe?? we have a place that rents out backhoes and generators and all kinds of crazy equipments.

Our little generator will work good enough for us. Plus i'll charge up the battery......

But the camper is mainly for sleeping in so won't your battery in your camper do good enough??

Oh yea keep in mind when the 7 wire plug is hooked into your truck it'll run off the battery in that too, so your truck kinda is a generator as long as your charging system works good. (alternator and stuff) just fire it up when you need some power..hahah

my mother-in-law has one that i could borrow if i really wanted. The truck would be one loud generator if i was to use that. The battery in our camper is junk, does not hold a charge anymore. If the old lady has off that Sunday perhaps we will pull it along also and stay the night. I guess the slipping 518 would be up for the task .
