Howdy Fellas,



Haven't spotted any trucks, but I just moved to the Orlando area from Pennsylvania and looking for a few things, plus any members that might be nearby.



Thanks

Bloomy what side of Orlando area. Winter Park is a little north east of Orlando but I'm usually in Oviedo which is almost directly east of Winter Park.

Missouri Mule,



Not sure of what the area is called. Location is South of the City around Lake Conway. I was in Winter Park today for the Farmer's Market. I've been doing a lot of driving around for familiarization. Where are good locations for fuel? Hopefully I won't need it, but are there any good dealers for warranty work? Thanks for the info. I see lots of diesels around, didn't know how many members would be here.

Bloomy, Fuel up where it is cheapest or you see lot of diesel's filling up. I fill up in Oviedo next to my business they move a lot of diesel.

Orlando Dodge would be good for warranty work or non-warranty work they are on HWY 50 on the west side of Orlando.

Greenway Dodge is pretty close to you they are east HWY 50.

Winter Park Dodge ( now called Holler Dodge I think) is on 17-92 in Winter Park but I wasn't happy with there work(windshield=warranty alignment/balancing=non-warranty work).

Don't know about Greenway they had bad reports on their ford dealership not sure about the Dodge side.

Bloomy, If you found the Winter Park farmer's market you can find my stand.



Go 436 north(Semoran blvd. ) , take a right on Aloma (SR 426 East) go all the way into Oviedo (aprox 10 miles). You will come up along the Baptist church that's Broadway (Sr 426)and Central (SR 434) go straight thru at the next stop light (40 yards further along) take a left on Geneva (County 426). Yellow wood trailer with big wood table in front of it (right side of road you will see it when you turn).

My Mule and Moose ( Freightliner (Blue cab, white box) will be parked to the right of the trailer. Closed Sundays and Wednesdays.

Saturday would be good, business usually slows down around two.

Bring your CTD! There a lot of them out this way.

I know three maybe four members, two shop at the stand the other lives in Winter Park.

Was running behind a 3rd gen black quad 3500 drw for a while on 75 heading to Florida had a small utility trailer behind it with Florida plates.



None of the CTDs I saw had TDR emblems or stickers on them.

just a heads up

I am living in Gainesville now, and drive a red 2003 3500. I have a TDR sticker in the lower left of back window. Doesn't seem to be much activity down this way.

 

[Missouri Mule]

I drive by Gainesville when I'm heading north (once or twice a year). I used to go to Gainesville a lot when my brother went to UF but I did not have my Mule at that time.

I have TDR grill emblem on dirver's side, TDR sticker,TDR member sticker, TDR bumper sticker (Don't worry about the mule, load the wagon" ) on the rear bumper. ( Never thought I would put stickers on my bumper ).
