It has been a while since I have attended the truck nationals. I know that CPNE and GMCPaul used to come to the truck nationals and a couple of the other board members. I would like to go, but not sure if I can this year.

There will be more trucks and truck related vendors at the truck show.As far as size goes,they are close to the same.There are more trucks in the show field than there are cars. Both are bigger every year!Spring Carlisle is huge,4/23-4/27.

GMCPauls will be attending the All Truck Nationals. And is just trucks, that's why we like it the best.
 There is no on grounds camping this year for those of you that plan to go.

If your into trucks, do the "All Truck Nationals" you won't be sorry. If you want to hit the motherload of swap meets do the spring or fall general swap meets at Carlisle. If your into swap meets, you'll need at least two days for the truck event and three for the general meet. There are a few campgrounds nearby if you want to pitch a tent such as www.westernvillagervpark.com
