Yep was watching that too...I'm not good enough with directions to figure out if that's on our route :o

Just make sure you stay on the west side of the Susquehanna river on 11/15 and we should be good! :2thumbs:

I wonder if the lack of excitement may be because all we poor schmucks who aren't going- are bummed.  >:(

I was through there off rush hour the other day and it wasn't bad.  It's down to one lane. 

But at rush hour it might be tough.

Want to hear about smucks?

As a change of pace The crew I roll down to carlisle with every year had seen 3 ford shows and 4 mopar shows so we decided to hit up the GM show this year.

What a waste of time we were there for less than 2 hours the show was 1/8th the size of the mopar show and usualy where all the parts vendors are there was parking for normal cars. It was awful. We ended up going to see Gettysburg and Washington DC, both were awesome. 

Never again will I go to a GM show. It was basically low dollar trans-maro-birds, new GTO's and a handfull of turbo buicks.

I've seen pictures of individual vendor booths but have not seen kind of an over all idea of how big the vending area is.
Can someone take a picture of that this year?

I can't say I have ever been to an event like this.

I do look forward every year to the pics......

I want to go so bad! It's a long drive from southern Louisiana though :(

Mopar action in the southern states is near unheard of, it's a bummer. Most of the events and good parts deals are in the north east. Shipping is what kills those sweet deals.
