My wife and I are planning on going this year again. We went last year for the day and to look at one trailer layout then walked around. Once we gathered the size of the show, we realized plan better the next time. My wife and I will walk the show again this year weather permitting on Saturday. Who knows what we will see or find.

We wanted to go this year, but the college kid has needs in the opposite direction.
So down towards Roanoke, VA we go.

Well, the wife and I went. After sitting in traffic for three hours we went in, talked to the Americas-Mailbox Home - mail forwarding - Americas-Mailbox vendor (we all should be doing this) and left. Too many people, too many trailers and it was so difficult to negotiate the areas within the show. I did, however, have one of the best lamb gyros I've ever had.....

We went. We saw. We left a few hours later. There were many 5ers to see there. My wife and I spoke with a rep from Keystone about some trailers they were offering. Quite frankly, there were a couple of nice Keystone models. The wife and I liked a Grand Designs model and I was impressed with the build quality of some of the components.
Yes the place was packed. The indoor portion was insane. There was plenty to see. I looked at the 2017 Ford Super Duty they had there. In person, they look nice. However I didn't get a chance to look inside as they were trying to get people to listen to a speech. However, they did have 2016 KR DRW sitting there. I told the wife I would need one of these for the 5er she liked. I said no I m not kidding either. I was told to keep dreaming I said replied back the same thing when it came to a trailer layout she liked.
In the end, we did not see or find any thing we really wanted. There was no " We need to sell or trade in our trailer now!" Which just reinforces the fact we should just get ours paid off.
