Ford F100 Supernationals - May 16-18, 2013

Good Morning! -

I have completed my travel arrangements and reservations for the 2013 Ford F100 Supernationals in Pigeon Forge, TN. This will be my first time attending. Is there a Ford Truck Enthusiasts gathering anytime during this event? Just curious...

I am really stoked about going to Pigeon Forge. Without everyone's help from the FTE forum, my trucks would just be rusting away.

Thank You,
Dan M.

Where are you driving from? I'm less than 4 hours away and hope make it this year too. The plan is to place an order with Dennis Carpenter and pick it up from them at the show... at least saving shipping charges.

Hi Jerry -

Unfortunately, I am flying from Omaha to Knoxville and renting a car from there to Pigeon Forge. If only they had a '66 Ford pick-up I could rent...

I think it would be neat to meet all the FTE gurus in person at the Supernationals...

See You There!
Dan M.

We're renting a cabin in the mountains nearby. For reservations at the Grand Resort Hotel, you can call 800-251-4444.

We will probably be there. My wife will have our son approximately 4 weeks earlier. She thinks she'll be climbing the walls by then and ready for a short trip. We live about 5.5 hours away near Vidalia, GA.

She booked a place, I don't know the details, for around $100 a night.

Hi -

The latest news is that the F-100 Supernationals will be held at the Pigeon Forge Municipal Parking Lot instead of the Grand Resort Hotel.
