Have never been, what are the dates just want to confirm what I have, and if cannot get into the Ramada where is a close, nice hotel to stay. Don't want to walk far, I want to be able to bring my chair from the hotel room and watch the traffic. Any advise will be appreciated. thanks Buddy

Advise? Well, I've only been to a few Grand runs, but if the truck show is anything like them, you had better take a bike if you don't want to walk. I usually ride a bike, just stopping to see the trucks, and interesting stuff, and it usually takes at least 1/2 a day. Great show, and a great town/area. Well worth the trip.

YOU CAN ALSO RIDE THE TROLLEY FOR A QUARTER, (1 WAY) SO IT IS NOT
THE END OF THE WORLD IF YOU CAN'T GET A HOTEL ROOM REALLY CLOSE

Definately get a county map of the backroads if you can find one. It will save you major time. My sister lives there & told me about a few, and I was glad she did.
