Re: Whats the best truck show

Best one here in the Great Midwest is the Midwest All Truck Nationals in Riverside Mo. in September. You will find a huge number of trucks and a lot of board members in attendance.

There's also Carlisle in PA, but I've never been.

Re: Whats the best truck show

Best show for what? If you're looking for a truck to buy some are better than others.If you want parts a different show may have more of what you want.

It's like asking where do I find a wife, the strip club or E-Harmony.

I agree with the all truck Nationals in Riverside. Great show. The burn-out contest is one of the highlights.

I'm pretty fond of Carlisle, but I only live 45 minutes away and there are a lot of parts up for grabs there...
