He who gets in a mess gets himself out right? Loading the "K" Provisions(Elkburger) in the 5th wheel freezer for the feast the PNW-2010 Rally,Campout and Convoy! I think I/m coming the farthest away, not sure. Anyone know? Almost 600 or more miles. elkhunter

I was going to say, if you were driving the deuce across 3 states what would be epic. It's awesome you are coming out anyway!

I made a commitment to come! I keep my word! Thanks for the kind reply! I wouldn'' miss this for anything!!!! Only wish I could talk Sgt. Sam to come from Salmon, ID. I'm visiting him on the way out. He has one beautiful M62 Wrecker he has restored! maybe some day he'll come. I hope so! elkhunter

Last year I drove up from CA in the 818 and my wife drove the M1009.
It was 430 miles each way for us just to get here, plus all the convoy miles, and miles back out to rescue a stranded truck.
MAN, I am sure glad I am only a few miles from the start of the convoy this year!!!!!

Yup, darn lucky. Good place to live, and it just happens to be a few miles away from the Convoy/parade!
Btw, can't wait to get some of that elk to eat!!!

Don't you owe me enough already?
I don't have a winch, but I doubt I would need it with the 818....

I have actually hooked up my 37' 5th wheel to my 818.
We were almost thinking about bringing it to the convoy, but it is a bit overkill since we live right down the road.
Btw, I keep bugging my wife to let me paint the 5th wheel 3 color camo. It would look SO COOL to tow that with the 818!!!

I have been following along. I am getting excited about it. I have a parade saturday and I finally fired off my truck after being down nearly 10 months. Funny the Legion hall just called to confirm. I was getting concerned.
I have a new clutch, new rear main, head gaskets, valve adjustment, detailed dash, dual probe pyro, locking hubs, spring ride conversion, and hopefully one more knuckle boot soon. If I can find a gantry crane I will pop in the LDS motor before the camp out.
I am looking forward to seeing a large collection of collector trucks in the morning sunlight. The smell of diesel and bacon.

Well I officially can't make it. My work won't let me take the time off. Another guy already claimed that weekend so it means I have to work.
