buds truck Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Have an idea of which way you'll head? If I get the time off, it will be a 2 week adventure. I could be persuaded to go most any route...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48Dodger Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 A big thumbs up (from down under) to you Tim for organising and hosting such a fine annual event.... Davin (aka Desotodav) Wow....Thanks for the kind words Davin. I really appreciate it. The hardest part is cleaning the place up, but you know, I need to do that anyway. lol. Really, it's The guys who come out to the event that deserve the thumbs up! And my favorite part? Leaning against a rusty ol' fender with a few of the local experts and sorting through the iron and the dust! wohoo! lol 48D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pflaming Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I'll look for a cheap lawn mower for my 8 year old grandson if you have races for kids or if not if the adults will let the kids win, be fun to watch. Either way, he is coming with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulldogTom Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 So far the longest trip it's taken for a weekend was from Susanville, CA to Bishop, CA. Just for Mule Days. As your unofficial tax consultant (its free advice, take it for what it is worth), I could see a deductible trip for you to attend a car show where you show off those really nice gauges that you do. Since it is a limited market for your excellent services, traveling to a truck show where most of your potential customers will be to drum up business could be a deductible business expense. Just my humble opinion. So, you coming now? Tom Hollister, CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Boger Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 I guess if I don't show up I will never hear the end of it from Tim. Tim, we need to trailer the 50 back up there. It is still sitting in the same spot and same condition when we swapped the cabs out. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48Dodger Posted December 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 lol...I think 30 years would be a good round number...lol. At that point I'll pass it onto the kids. For me the best part of the BBQ is the large number of guys who know what the heck they are talking about when it comes to PH trucks.....makes it a great way to learn fast. 48D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
