Vannin' Home Forums Van shows and Events National Truck-In How bout some ideas?

Really I had to go back to page 1 and re read this whole thread before I say something worth while. and To some it may not measure up. But , I think If the question was about how Long (in days) the National truck-in should be? Personally I do not think The event should be any longer than it is. I think we started it on Wednesday at Altamont at the 26th. An it was the first five day Nats. (correct me I might be wrong)I really don't think it should be any longer, and starting on Thursday is Just as good. Do not burn out the crown jewel of vanning by overdoing it. Remember the old show buisiness saying .. "always leave'em wanting more".
As for two Nationals, A winter and summer , For the same reasons I think I would have to say No.
However the Idea has come up about some National Truck-in event sites that are exceptional and to have them on a rotational basis. This idea is worth hashing out the details on. I have been to some nationals ( and I do not profess to be an authority like some who have been to almost every one, But I have been to enough to speak on this) that should not have been at the sites that they were. So iI would not be opposed to leaving this subject open for serious discussion and voted on in the near future.I don't think I care how far I have to go to a National Truck-in half the fun is the trip. BUT the quality of the event site means alot. Besides a great crew that is informed to what is going on, Easy access, clean facility, easy access to shopping for things needed and Electric and water are nice. Not much to ask for "THE" National truck-in, a great responsibility for the people wanting to host it.
