Welcome from N Georgia, be sure to watch threads about "upcoming events" not sure what's in your area except Denton Farm Park rally just north of Charlotte in April, we had about 40 trucks this year, vendors selling parts and stuff, there's a kitchen trailer (MKT) provides great low cost meals and at night we set around the fire and tell "stories" great time is had by all.
The Georgia Rally is in October and is worth the trek
from Greensboro even if you haven't bought a vehicle by then it is a must show! we had 109 trucks 40? trailers, at least a dozen vendors, a MKT, and mile of trails from mild to wild. anyone who has an empty seat is happy to let you ride along (just offer a little gas money to be nice). and of course we have the "story" fire.
I hear there are some big plans for the rally this year i am counting the days.
Hope to meet up somewhere done the road
