Then everybody can put their trucks to the test climbing the Rocky Mountains... big hills and altitude!

Id rather go to national park myself but it's up to you guys.

So, how the hell do we proceed? I'm a little stumped here. Not really sure we're getting anywhere. I mean, say we get more votes for chicago than anything else, does that mean the rest are gonna go there?

I get the impression that if it's not where someone wants to be that it won't happen...?

Maybe we could work something with Ford and tour the plant in Louisville. It is a good city to visit also.... We could drive down to Bowling Green and buzz the Vette plant. Shake up some GM folks a bit.

we need to add a poll to this thread that way we could vote. i have not paid my $20 fee, so i cant set one up but if we ask a mod they could do it for us(right?). on other Vbulletin boards that can be done. that way everyone after they voted would see how everyone else has voted. a national park i thing would be better. imo

Central US locations should be chosen as well...

St. Louis
Branson Mo
Nashville (more east)
Ashville NC (again more east)
Grand Canyon (more west obviously)
Henry Ford Museum/Greenfield Village
Deals Gap Tn (motorcycle heaven...but would be funny to RUMBLE the Ex's thru the Dragon!...318 curves in 11 miles!!!)
East location (DC)
Beach driving (4x4) Outer Banks NC
North East Location Acadia NP (Maine)
North location Glacier NP
Denver is a nice "central" travel location in the Rockies.
Yellowstone may limit rig size to 31 or 32'...I can't remember their limitation....


Just some suggestions for the poll locations to spread out the logistics...

My summer "long" travels are done...I'm only up for 400 miles or less this year...I've already pulled near 4000 miles and I have another 1000 or so planned...but if there are enough "options" across the country...I think more "may" respond...
