Definitely. I don't have any CUCV parts, but what I listed here is probably 1/10th of what I am bringing haha.

Working hard to complete chores so I can also come. Hoping to leave sometime tomorrow and get there sometime Thursday, but that can slip easily if something else goes wrong. Traveling light, so can't bring any swap stuff.

I know the feeling. I have a year to prepare and always wind up doing the PM on the truck the week before. I wanted to be in Wednesday, however it seems every time I plan vacation there always seems to be a mysterious special project pop up at work that "only i can do...." lol. Hoping for early Thursday...Looking forward to catching up with all.

Another question for yall, I'm thinking about driving my bobbed 5 ton down to the denton show, is there anything special I need to do or special place to park or anything need to know. We're not staying the whole day but thought might be cool to have her there. She's not a show truck or anything but we still love her. Do I just roll up to the gate and say "let me in" LOL

You just need to stop at the gatehouse and let them know you are with the show and that you will not be camping. Not sure if they will charge you for a day pass, but since you are bringing a truck they probably won't. Then just roll into the campground, or up front if you prefer, and come say hello, introduce yourself!

Last year they didn't charge me for a day pass because I was a veteran, if memory serves me right.

I've got the HMMWV and M1102 mostly packed and 95% of the PMCS done for each. With two other vehicles in our group of 7 guys I think we have about 1000lb of gear per attendee and I still feel underpacked! It'll be a lot of fun and will be all of our first visits out there. We are camping friday and saturday night.

Made it out today. Was hoping to see more parts for sale but I say that at every show I go to. Didn't find the bumper I wanted but did get a good deal on some Humvee pickup side rail/seats for the bed of my CUCV project. Lot of cool stuff there.

So I finally got to put this “Pig” through its paces-~300 miles total in 75-80* sunshine in the back and forth as well as 2 convoys. It’s a blast ! I’m going to recab it at some point but man it’s fun.

I really appreciated my ride and the conversation about it... I have a much better appreciation for it (and the whole family of cab-overs) then I did...
Thanks also for organizing the BBQ run...

Denton was a great time as always. Nice to see everyone and catch up. We could not have asked for better weather as well. I did have an engine issue going home on the M37. Sluggish and loss of power. Oil pressure good, no overheat, no smoke or steam. I will check it out in my "free time" and keep you all posted. Take care ya'll.

Thank you all for even the 'short' visit. I really appreciate it, especially CGarbee for fitting me in. Your food is always great and your skills are appreciated!
It was really nice seeing everyone. A well needed break, but not enough. Working a plan for next year to be out for longer and actually bring some things. We shall see.
