This looks like a fabulous location! I have no idea right now if it will be in the cards for us or not. Vacations are doubly costly these days, but I'll definitely keep it on my radar. It has been MANY years since a rally in Tennessee.

Going to be just the girls and I this year, so now have to figure out tents vs truck camper. My favorite part of rallies are the convoys but I'm getting spoiled camping with air conditioning

He's actually honestly bummed but we taking a 2 week trip at end of month that we've been planning and saving for years for and he knows his job might frown at him using all his vacation time in a row haha.

I promised him I wouldn't do any drag racing and I promised to try to not come home with any additional parts or vehicles heehee

Well at least you said try. You’ve totally got an out. Remember you will be far enough south that you’ll think the sheet metal is clean. LOL

I was thinking put the truck camper on a truck bed trailer so I can unhitch and go on the day trips.... but that will leave me 8ft by 4ft of empty bed space for hauling fenders or quads or an engine or...

No jury would convict this poor man if he couldn't take my nonsense anymore haha

My wife is probably in the same boat. You need a small travel trailer. Maybe even a pop up with AC. Truck campers are hard to deal with. Trade in the slide in. You’d be surprised how nice the pop ups are nowadays.

Can’t speak for this year but last year we would have had a bunch of Oilburners.net stickers on trucks etc if some ******* would have remembered he had them.

Most campgrounds these events are hosted at know we are all from Oilburners. The campers not in the group almost always ask what group we're in and why all these old Ford diesels are camped together and a big pile of people are hanging out around one campfire. But, we don't have any logo's or stuff like that. I have an old banner from the 2009 Rally with OB on it, but don't use it cause the date and location are obviously wrong.LOL

Is there something you had in mind? Do you have OB swag that we could use for the Rally?

Would be really nice to have both rally threads at the top of the IDI section where they will get the most traffic.:angel::angel::angel:

LOL I was wondering the same thing is there Official swag? I was planning on a banner and could really use the LOGO file (Hint Hint) it will be a generic that could be pasted on to the next host.

Or can I Just steal it from the sight;Really

Sorry to hear you had to cancel plans for the CO rally. Let me know if there is anyway Missy and I could be of any help.
