Exclamation 2019Tennessee Chapter GTG

Anyone interested in one or more Chapter get to gathers this summer? With the state being so long from Memphis to Bristol perhaps we should consider GTG's by region...east, central and west.
Chime in if you have any ideas of when and where we could try doing this.

I doubt that there's more than 3 or 4 in WTN remotely active. Full disclosure: I'm within an eyelash of moving to the Gatlinburg area if retirement works out in the next few months. So I am more inclined to meet up with the ETN group if it comes to that. Most of us in WTN would love a reason to get out of here anyway!

I understand what your saying, the only other one responding here lately is Mitch in Clarksville. I know that Dutch left the site about 3 years ago. The map shows clusters of members near Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville and the Tri-cities, but I don't know how many of them are actually active here on FTE anymore.

I wasn't aware that Dutch had left the building. You can take my number down a notch.

Dutch went to another truck forum, no one seems active like they used to be, don't go to the tourist trap Gatlinburg, Maryville is a quiet town, less traffic.

I'm on that "other" forum. Nobody is very active there either.

I'm over here in Mid TN, but with the little one, I can't really do much traveling, so if there was any GTG, it would have to be more closer to this area for me.

What about Cookeville, TN. about 85 miles from Nashville/Brentwood, 97 miles from Chattanooga and 100 miles from Knoxville? That's rough 1 1/2 hr drive from each area.

Tellico Plains here, we have all kinds of stuff going on here in the summer, big outdoor flea market, the Skyway, and other outdoor stuff to do and see. No sitting around in some stuffy eating joint!! All welcome to come to Tellico. I just like standing around talking trucks myself.

I don’t spend any time in this forum but I do spend a fair amount of time in the diesel forums. I am down with a GTG. I second Maryville. Much quieter and still very close to the mountains

Yeah, we made the news about it a few years ago, so long as we stay small I'll be happy, I don't want to see a repeat of Lavergne nor Murfreesboro, I don't like all the traffic.

Have been "dislocated" for some time, but still interested. Don't have the 'dentsides' any more but STILL a "blue oval" nut. Finances limit a lot, but still hanging on.
