The only specific Ford truck show is the one in Arthur every August. If you want to know about car shows in general, pick up a copy of Old Autos, they have EVERY show related to cars & trucks listed in there!

It's hard to get folks together, I just gave up.

The Ford Truck show in Arthur is a great example, I promoted it quite a bit but it was still very poorly attended by FTE Ontario members.
I think there was three or four of us that attended this year and those are usually the same folks that attend every year.

Some had good reasons for not being able to attend others just didn't bother going.

I think it's a combination of things like distance between members and summer is always a busy time for everyone.

Maybe next year will have a better FTE presence.

Maybe one of these years I'll get my truck up to the show...

I've actually spent most of this summer without my truck, loaned it out to a friend a couple times, had my kitchen lumber in it stored in a barn a few weeks....

Lots to Do

You just gotta get to know the lay of the land. There are other ford shows around, but alot of cruise nights around have different nights devoted to each make. Arthur is one that allows newer vehicles (no year specification)
