2018 Carlisle truck nationals Aug. 3-5?
Could not find info. so figured I would ask.
Does FTE plan to attend this year as a club? Saw past threads where they did go and looked like a good turn out. Me and 1 other FTE member are going, I am thinking about and probably will register my truck for judging. Would love to see a convoy of FTE going in their.

Sorry, first I'm seeing this as the PA leader.
Yes, we used to have a pretty good turnout for the meets, but there were things that changed/happened over time. Several PA members, myself included, got more vested in showing vehicles which became a priority, and others moved on to other interests and stopped coming to the show, or traveling in became cost prohibitive. Between that and some other factors, there's not been an FTE meet at the event for a couple years now. And quite frankly, with my job and commitments to my own two trucks to prepare, I can't take the lead in planning something as the in-state chapter leader.
All of that said, I will be there to show my 98 F150 in the 97-03 full size Ford class (truck in signature) and towing it out there with my OBS (avatar picture) more than likely and parking it with friends in the OBS Addicts club to have it inside the grounds. So, feel free to stop by and say hello if you see me around.

Cool. I got mine "on schedule" right after the Bloomsburg Jamboree (early July). I'll be out there Friday sometime for the weekend.

Well just wrapped up what I could do between the rain. Rain in the forecast for tomorrow but Saturday and Sunday looks great. As long as she looks good by the time Judges come around I will be happy. Leaving at 5am for the show. Come check it it out

Nice work man. I also took home 2nd in my class. Stopped down and found your truck but you must have been out wandering since you weren't around - looks really good. Didn't realize that they only made so few trucks with the Black Ops edition in a dually.

I was hardly at the truck. Too much too see and running into old friends making new ones. Actually my truck is the only one they made in a f450 and the only white one. Congrats to you as well. I did stop at your truck too. Love the old body style. You must of been wandering as well. Can't wait for next year.
