I think that there is a permanent construction situation on I-75 in the Cincinnati area. I've never seen it otherwise. It must be a law or something...

I will be arriving on Thursday sometime, I will have a Chrysler 300S with the 3.6 & 8speed ZF transmission set up for test drives for those that are interested.

The Taurus last year was an interesting drive. Since I did it last year, I'll just go out if you have a no-show, rather than hog someone else's chance.

If you get into a situation with your trailer you can't figure out, you can hunt me down. I perform all the orientations for new and used trailers and motor homes at our dealership. If I can't help you, I know who to take you to here to get your question answered.

Love to be there for the test drive. Jim

Alumapalooza is in full swing. There are still two more full days of fun and stuff to do, and if you live within a couple hours' drive, you can get an activity pass to come play with us.
I will be doing my second seminar this afternoon at 2:30 in the main tent, and maybe we can have an impromptu forum get together afterward. In the grand tradition of Murphy, I left a third of my presentation materials at home, and have had to combine my seminars, so some of the info will get repeated. In a way, that's good, since the people that couldn't make it to the first one will get a second chance. The focus on this seminar is patching, riveting the patches, sealing the patches, and dressing the rivets.

I have spent the week, In, On, and Under, the old 73' but would love to take a restoration break, and drive up from Columbus, OH to spend the day.
Are there places to sit and rest, through the day, as walking and standing all day would be a killer.

How much is a day pass?

We are just waiting to hear from the repair guys that our trailer is ready to pickup, and we will be there! It should be very clean after all of the leak testing!
It should be ready today, or in the morning...

Yes there are places to rest during the day. Today's pass is $25. Come over for a visit! Come to the north gate..backside of Airstream plant. Check in with us. Lou

Can someone please post pics from Alumapalooza?

loudruff · 05-30-2014, 09:06 PM

We have some trouble with posting. JC is in a weird zone. Little cell coverage that plops in and out. Afterward we will get hooked up with WiFi.

Good to know. Explains why we haven't heard much about it on the Forums yet.

This took about ten minutes to upload. Others are not even that lucky...

Airbiscuit · 05-31-2014, 07:29 AM

Very curious about the polishing throw down. Was there a clear winner?

loudruff · 06-04-2014, 08:47 PM

I went over and studied the results the next day. I liked the Nuvite side. It seemed to have a deeper shine. I don't know which one was the final winner in the peoples choice vote. Alex will have to answer that! It was his trailer.

Becky B. · 06-05-2014, 09:32 PM

I agree with Loudruff...my sister, daughter & I thought the Nuvite side looked to have a deeper shine as well. The vote at Alumapalooza was a tie, though.
