Yup...the other day a supplier of mine is having a car show to promote the stuff he sells and i asked about bring my rig ( ELECTRONIX / LIGHTS GALORE ( WHAT THEY want to promote)) and HE SAID ...oh like the old hippie STONER van ( like THAT'S a BAD thing)..then paused...then said ...well send me pictures of iy and "we'll see"...I JUST laughed it off....I GUARANTEE!!!!!! when i send pictures of my van...he WILL WANT ME THERE...I DO THAT stuff to promote MY business ( small corporate sponsored shows ...don't sell anything there....but i've got some GREAT CONTRACTS for corporate vehicles out of them), NOT THEIRS.....but hey ...I'll play YOUR game and use YOUR promotional dollars to promote MY business, and HOPEFULLY ( for them) it will be with some of their products...but not necessarily.
Anybody who takes their van to a car show KNOWS THIS...VANS get the most attention and "stirs" the most imagination in the minds of the folks who "gaze" upon them....( NOT arrogant...just FACT). I LOVE going to a small corporate car show and be 1 van amoung 25-30 cars....PIECE O CAKE!.....I WILL get calls from it...ALL I have to do is show up, open the van, and THEN do what i do best ( RUN MY MOUTH about the van and what the stuff on it can DO FOR THEM or their company).
My van dosen't have a high dollar paint job ( just STOCK PAINT), NO expensive wheels ( $100 "shiney" hub caps), no chop or fancy fiberglass do-dads, no big fancy engine ( ALL OF WHICH ARE GREAT THINGS)...MINES ALL STOCK...except my custom interior built to PRODUCE sales at new car dealerships and body shops and the like...Its a TOOL...It's FUN to use this tool and to learn how the tool can benifit in different situations.MY VAN to ME...is EVERYTHING a vanner could want( sleep in it , carry all my stuff i need with me, looks cool ( IS COOL..just ask me) PLUS************** Helps me to produce an INCOME , I'm always "home" with my van.................THERE I GO AGAIN...Blablabla

Well I was beside a badass blown 41' willy's but I won the "to Kool Car Award" even thow I am not a car. Funny s%&*, got some "looks" when I pulled in but was all good after that. Being I won that award I get to park next to the tent next month (isn't that special). I am not and do not mean to be a d^&*head, 1st show, 1st award=happy beer! Oh I got a laminated award, hat, t-shirt, free food coupons and invite to other shows. Back to the truck race (DVR) cheers
