Okay, I am in too! I promise to clean the mud off my tires this year.

 

[Tackettr]

Roger that on the prize money, we still have $200 from "Parade of Lights" for new signs!!!!

M1075: Funny you mention that, I notice that the rules states vehicles must be clean! Not sure if that was in there last year????

 

[Tackettr]

PS: The theme this year is "100 years of Scouting". So if anyone knows of a Troop that wants to ride, bring them along!!! My nephew just made Eagle Scout and I would have him on-board but he is off the Basic Training tomorrow and will be gone. I will have a truck load of family that just likes to ride!!!

 

[M813A1]

OK I am ready to do it all over again !!! Looking forward to it !!

If an extra driver is needed I may be able to assist with adequate notice.

If I had my trailer picked up I'd come out with a M915, but thats all I have now since I sold the firetruck.

 

[Tackettr]

You dont need no stinking trailer! Bring it on out, M915 are welcome! As a matter of fact here is what M1075 is driving this year.

 

[Tackettr]

Don't that be an issue. Bobtail it or you can pull one of my M871 flatbeds. Just let me know!

 

[M1075]

Anyone out there? Anyone?

I'm in with the M915A1 and can provide another MV to anyone who wants to drive/participate!

 

[mikew]

Well I can make it, question is; would it be better to bring my bobbed truck (it's gray, not green) or see if I can borrow a green truck from M1075?

I saw Warthog last weekend and I'm pretty sure he is planning on it. He has the "master list" so hopefully the invitation has gone out to all. I'm talking with a friend about driving a 2nd truck for me. I also know of 2 others that might be there.
