Merle Coggins Posted April 23, 2015 Report Posted April 23, 2015 I see a truck back there, Ed. It's all good. Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted April 23, 2015 Report Posted April 23, 2015 Noted. nothing like this allowed Wow......did I miss something here? Or are you guy's back there just very easily excited? Must be those long winters you got. And Ed......if I see one more slammed truck I am going to puke. Jeff Quote
ggdad1951 Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 I'm hoping everyone might want to bail a LITTLE early one of the days from the show and go check out my COE. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 Where are you going to be storing it? Quote
ggdad1951 Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 99.99% it will be stored at my friends place still near Elko Mn (20 min south of my place in Eagan). Quote
Ram Man 02 Posted May 1, 2015 Report Posted May 1, 2015 you bought a cab over?!?! im jealous... Quote
ggdad1951 Posted June 8, 2015 Report Posted June 8, 2015 so just under 2 weeks to the show. We talked about having a Pilot House park together day. Are we still doing this? WHICH day do we want to do this? And of course WHERE? I think Todd and Merle are staying at my place so those two will be easy to park near (altho one day I'll be in the NAPA lot)... It will be here sooner than we think... Quote
ruff1148kr Posted June 8, 2015 Report Posted June 8, 2015 please take plenty of pics of all those trucks together too cool Quote
Dave72dt Posted June 8, 2015 Report Posted June 8, 2015 altho one day I'll be in the NAPA lot... It will be here sooner than we think... Vendor showcase vehicle? Quote
ggdad1951 Posted June 8, 2015 Report Posted June 8, 2015 Vendor showcase vehicle? My "guy" said I can park one day there since I bought so much from them during the resto (he runs the parking)....honestly mostly tools! That, and I'm the reason they have a Weatherhead bin now in their store... Quote
Ram Man 02 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) if i had a say in this id prefer to park together saturday morning. we could park on the north side in the shade where you normally are. but im flexible if that doesnt work for others Edited June 10, 2015 by Ram Man 02 Quote
Todd B Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 I plan on leaving Saturday after the show. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 Michelle and I will likely head out on Sunday. May or may not go to the show for a short time first. Merle Quote
NiftyFifty Posted June 11, 2015 Report Posted June 11, 2015 If your anywhere remotely close to my Canadian group, I'll park my truck with the group... I'm sticking close to the other guys as I'm taking most of the chairs and coolers. Quote
ggdad1951 Posted June 11, 2015 Report Posted June 11, 2015 forecast...forecast...changes every day so far...now has rain most of the weekend...we will see I guess, I tend to think the forecast is most accurate 3 days in advance...here's hoping is changes! Quote
Captain Neon Posted June 11, 2015 Report Posted June 11, 2015 Yes, too soon to tell at this stage. Yesterday afternoon, they were saying partly sunny all day 6/19 when on Tuesday they were promising thunderstorms all day on 6/19. Quote

If you are getting your forecast from http://forecast.weather.gov/there is usually a link near the bottom of the page labeled "Forecast Discussion" where the real, live human that comes up with the official forecast puts their own comments. In my area, the people that do that tend to mention if the different computer models are tracking one another. My impression is that if all the models agree then the forecast is likely to be accurate. But if the models differ and the person just picked the result the they thought fit best then the forecast is likely to be inaccurate. I've even seen some times where the forecaster wrote that it was unclear what was going to happen and that maybe the next shift would get better data and/or a more consistent set of model runs. Quote
Todd B Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 I went to start my semi this noon to bring it in the shop and start cleaning, first time ever my battery was dead. So I got out my tow strap and my wife pulled me to start it and it fired right up. I noticed my safety retainer on my tow strap was all bent up so I thought I would grind it off. I can't believe I did it but I hit the strap with the grinder and ruined it. I sure hope my whole trip won't be like this. Anybody have a favorite type of cheese. we have a small cheese factory here that makes incredible cheese of all flavors. Quote
NiftyFifty Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 Whiz!!!!! LOL. Ive never been this close to the wire before on a build, I'm just about to do the third coat of paint on the box sides, rear pan and front panel....I'm hoping to get the box sitting in the truck tomorrow evening, then to change out the fuel pump that died on me this week!! If I have to trailer queen this truck I'm coming....that or buy a car at the show and just show it!! LOL Quote
Todd B Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 I finally had a chance to put work aside and get ready. I had a list of little things I wanted to do last winter and here it is the day before and nothing got accomplished. However, all washed up and ready to go. I am getting excited. Are we taking the old dodges to Ed's for the BBQ? Quote
Young Ed Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 Are we taking the old dodges to Ed's for the BBQ? I hope so! Quote
Young Ed Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 Ed, How far are you from Marks house. About 30 miles. He lives on the south end and I'm north. Almost all freeway/highway Quote
Todd B Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 I'll drive it. I am also bringing a fresh rhubarb desert. See you tomorrow night. Quote
