    What is the longest distance you have taken a car to a car show?
    « on: March 03, 2008 - 11:37:29 AM »
    I'll start this out. In 2005 we trailered the T/A to Carlisle for the reunion. The trip was around 1800 miles one way. From where we live it's around 250 miles at least to a good Mopar only show. There are showes here in town that we go to but the best one was The World Of Wheels which quit comming here a few years ago. I just would like to know if there are other like us that travels long distances.

    250 mile trip and that seemed long enough cause the wipers decided to quit working on the drive home and of course the rain was comming down in sheets
