I can't wait, planning on driving "Merlot" since nobody wants her

**Ron 586** · 12-17-2008, 01:36 AM

I'll be happy to see her in my yard again.

Hope to be at the gathering, Have been invited to go on a raft trip down the grand canyon around that same time.hope there is no conflict in dates.Looks like a busy summer for me if all works out!!

All's we need is nice weather so we can ride topless!

Welcome to the site from Big Sandy, West Tennessee. I have been to Goose Creek several times during my 30+ years of truck driving. I would hate to have to chose between the grand canyon and the meet but know which I would choose. (the meet of course) Hope to see you in July.

vtblazer · 12-23-2008, 05:43 PM

Easy choice, the Grand Canyon will be there next year, a local meet-n-greet chuck full of 1st gens won't.

1972 Banana · 12-29-2008, 02:49 PM

The Grand Canyon trip is pretty much paid for and not by me, Should know more in a day or two. Just like everyone else on here I have some things to do before the trip, no major problems in the reliability area just cosmetic.

Heck I will just load up the tool box(duct tape,bailing wire electrical tape and some nylon tie straps) check the fluid levels and go! But I am thinking maybe I should get some good cell phone #'s and someone lined up from home to come rescue me if the need arises.

Banana, we know enough people that live off of I-75, I-24, and I-40 to get you taken care of

1972 Banana · 12-29-2008, 03:03 PM

That is one thing about people who drive the older vehicles,they will always offer to help a fellow out with an old truck.

hope to make it to the event should be a blast!

My name is Bryan too! Cool!

I know 5150 will have his there, and "Merlot", so that is
2 for sure. I would like to see about 25 total myself

That'd be most excellent.

Maybe for the new year, we should start a poll of those who plan to attend.

Given I get this crate together, I'm there.

LUV2XCLR8 · 12-30-2008, 05:00 PM

But where would we put the poll?

Could start a new thread, or is it possible to add it to this one?

LUV2XCLR8 · 12-30-2008, 06:46 PM

You started it so I think you can add to it, at least I think you can

vtblazer · 12-30-2008, 08:10 PM

We got us a poll goin' boys!

I voted #5 but even if it isn't finished, I'm still coming down.

I'll trailer the freaking thing if I have too.

LUV2XCLR8 · 12-30-2008, 09:20 PM

Don't do that, you can't take the GQ chassis if you trailer yours silly

AJs72K5 · 12-30-2008, 10:48 PM

I voted #3. Wanna make the trip, but too hard to plan July already with the kids.

LUV2XCLR8 · 01-04-2009, 04:48 PM

Yeppers, worth the drive

LUV2XCLR8 · 01-04-2009, 10:29 PM

Yeppers, I drove "Merlot" in 2007 and a F-150 in 2008

cparman · 01-05-2009, 07:25 PM
