Reason: updated list
Found this list of cruise nights to make things easier. I'd double check events before going since they can't guarantee dates are correct. Not sure how many folks on here go to cruise nights or swap meets, but I hope to see some of you out there!
Thanks! I don't know if many people still attend these events... the internet has sort of made them "outdated" in some folks minds. They're a lot of fun, good deals can be had, and it's a great way to share your hobby with the family or hang out with your car buddies. Hope to see some of you out there!
