It's time for another Ohio truck meet. For those that have seen our meets before you know the format. Get a bunch of truck nuts together, load a trailer to the the limits, hook it up and flog each truck up a hill and hope nothing breaks! For those that haven't seen this before here is our past 7 meets: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

The event will me on Sunday June 22nd. We'll meet at the WalMart parking lot located in Milllersburg, OH (1640 S Washington St.) at 8am. From there a short BS session will ensue followed by a caravan back to my house. At that points it's hook and tow time. Lunch will be served (usually grilled meat of some sort, the typical sides), followed by more hook and tow time until everyone that wants to tow has been able to.

Towing is purely optional. Many come just for the truck talk and general conversation that goes on.

Post up if you are interested in coming or have questions.I can help with places to stay, things to do since I am located in the largest Amish population in the US many decide to make a weekend out of it.

By the way this is an official invite for Jimmy Fallon!

 

I will be there ready to tow if Jimmy Fallon is there.

 

Ha! I think there is a fat chance Jimmy Fallon would show up but I had to invite him right? What I would like to see that is based in reality is for a 2015 6.7 and some Chevy and Dodge trucks to make it.

 

Yeah that 2015 and the new exhaust brake would be nice to test. Some Dodge and Chevys to tow up the hill would be great too.

So how much weight this time around? I am good for 22K

 

Probably right at 15K again. That is the heaviest bumper pull dump trailer I can get a hold of.

 

Mike, after seeing the videos I don't think there will be enough road to safely clear the Dodge or the Chevy on the side of the road. I would not risk it.

I would love to come out but I don't think the wife would be on board with it. I will have to ask her if she is interested in going to the Ohioan Amish country. It's about a 7 hour ride which would be a really long day for a hill climb.

 

We should have plenty of Fords to drag any Chevys or Dodges that show up out of the way.

 

I'll try to make it this year, but I'm on call that week so my schedule could change.

 

Bump......

 

I'll be there, but without a truck.

 

Well hold on a minute. If there is going to be Dodges and Chevys to pull up the hill Im game. I wont miss that.

 

How about draggin a Prius up the hill?

 

I would love to come play, and could easily make up some reason to be in the area for work Monday, but thats the day I get back from my Honeymoon....

 

There's an idea. I can't find a Class V hitch for the back, but it does have tow hooks up front.

 

Hey I've been looking out for this for awhile. I really want to go this year. I don't see why I shouldn't be able to make it this year. So I should be going this year, at least I plan on it. So count me in!

It'll be interesting to see if any Dodge's or Chevy's show up. And I'd be up for towing a prius up the hill! LOL

Looking forward to it.


Tom, sorry if I missed something, but what happened to your F150??? I thought you really liked the EcoBoost?
