<font color=blue>I will be gone the first full week of February. Feb 3rd to Feb 12th, going on a trip to Canada. Think we could move the meeting to Sunday this time? I have a regular job and work 3pm to 11pm Tues to Sat now. I don't care where it is..... #ad
So the 17th or 18th of Feb would work.

Just a simple request #ad


Glad your trucks back together... ... . might have to try some of that PS you tried, I hate that whine in the morning. <font size=-2>

February 18th, Sunday.

Don't have a location; my default closed. Any thoughts? Maybe even a different town to draw more people? Iowans? South Dakotans? Sioux City maybe?

Let's get some more feedback. If'n we don't here from anyone else we'll just get together for a breakfast somewhere in Omaha. Hopefully Doug will have his truck back by then!

<font color=blue>Well my trip to Canada had to be canceled due to work issues. Soooo possibly same ol same ol on the truck performance wise.

I have an EZ or two if anyone is interested in trying it out?

Any ideas yet where we gonna meet up?

If you'll let a properly valved truck show up, I'm interested.

I'll be in New Orleans 3rd-10th(vacation). But I'm good for the 18th. Just let me know where.

<font color=blue>Well its getting closer, just pulling to the top and wondering if anyone has any ideas where we are meeting yet???

I would like to locat a shop around here that is open minded to trying and modifying our trucks for future reference, and some "Experiments" I wanna try..... fact of the matter is its too **** cold here to do anything in the wintertime outside.

Anyone have any recommendations? I think we need to find a engine shop and a transmission shop and open them up to the world of modified Cummins... ... I see a huge market here but no one taking advantage of it... . If I had the time and money I know I would jump on it..... #ad


I am hoping there is more interest then this..... for the "get together"

 

[dieselboy25]

Hey, count a new member in for the 18th. I will be in SW Iowa that weekend and would really like to meet some other TDR members. Kat, I would love to try an EZ with my truck.

Looks like we'll just get together somewhere here in Omaha. Any ideas? Who has a good brunch?

[GSchlegel]

If everyone is real hungry, Valentino's buffett on 108th between "L" and "Q" is hard to beat, only problem is it gets crowded bothj inside and in the lot. A quieter place might be better where we can BS and look over each others trucks might be preferable.

Just my $. 02

"top"

Let me know folks! Feel free to just drop in; but it'd be nice to have a general idea. It'd be weird sitting at a table for 24 by myself.

Thanks!

I'm planning on attending.
