Chevy Truck Nats in Pigeon Forge - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

cag17 · 12-06-2004, 11:42 PM

I just talked with the Rivers Landing motel and the show is planned for April 29 - May 1. Once again, I hope to have my ride there but who knows. So far the new body guy has did what he said that he would do and I am very happy with what he has done. Let me know what you guys think and if you all are going to make it.

kingparts · 12-07-2004, 09:16 AM

I know I will be there. The family loves that show. Hopefully I will have my suburban there.

da-burb · 12-07-2004, 06:04 PM

Isn't it just a little early to be dreaming of Pigeon Forge?? This is like getting excited about Santa in July. (and I will be making the 1200 mile trip for the 5th year in a row.)

CHEVYE · 12-07-2004, 07:19 PM

CHEVYE · 12-07-2004, 08:53 PM

the nats aren`t an enormous show either, so you can get around and still enjoy some scenery. if you ever go to a rod run, shades of the past, or any of those, it kind of sucks. it will take 3 hours to drive 5 miles. i just sit in a lawn chair and kick back. if we all get together we will have a blast.

cag17 · 12-08-2004, 08:16 AM

I know that it is early to talk about Pigeon Forge, but I was scheduling New Year's Eve and the subject just happened to come up.

IT'S NEVER 2 EARLY

**Palf70Step** · 12-08-2004, 10:16 AM

I hope I can get up there this year. So far looks good, since I'll finally be out of school. I don't think I'll have the 70 ready for it, but the 96 and I will be rumbling through again.

70ChevyLongbed · 12-08-2004, 05:54 PM

I'm planning on sticking around for a while this year... maybe even get to go to dinner with everybody

**Already Gone** · 12-08-2004, 06:24 PM

How many trucks/vehicles go to that show every year? Do you think I'd get the distance award if I showed up? (lol)

IF THEY HAVE THAT AWARD, I'D SAY YES

# OF TRUCKS, DON'T KNOW, I'VE NEVER BEEN BEFORE

70ChevyLongbed · 12-08-2004, 06:15 PM

Don't know... but I'm sure it will be close to a track

cag17 · 12-08-2004, 09:06 PM

There is another guy that comes every year from Ontario (I think). He won it last year. Seems like it was 1300 miles, give or take a mile or two.

da-burb · 12-08-2004, 11:35 PM

The first year I went I was beat out by a truck from Texas. He was at 1100 miles they said and I was at 1050.

My wife and I also make this into a weeks vacation. We get a cabin in the hills and take in all the southern hospitality. An absolute wonderful time each and every year.

djracer · 12-09-2004, 10:59 AM

the canadian truck that came last year were AWESOME! The guy with the red truck said he had 60k in it! I went last year and I will try again but I'm going up there after christmas and to daytona for spring break!
