The auto and tractor museum
Was hard to get good pictures
With all the caution ropes
However,
I did get one good shot

I had some friends that used to collect these
We used to go on some rally rides

Anyone ever have or ride a cushman ?

**Chevyland** · 05-12-2021, 11:06 PM

After a bit of rain
And my solar panel almost blowing off in the wind
I ended up making it to Larry’s
Don’t worry about it we can fix it later after breakfast
Thankfully I had a camo hat on
Otherwise it would have been ‘ugly’
A guy from California hanging out with a bunch
Retired redneck hillbillies from Arkansas
Little did they know
I know how to use twine and duct tape, too

**68bowtie** · 05-12-2021, 11:47 PM

Nice. When I was 16 we had a 15-passenger dodge van just like that (minus the campy thing). I used to give my friends rides home from school. Every one called it the Payne bus. Good memories.

**Chevyland** · 05-12-2021, 11:57 PM

After breakfast
We set out on the all day
‘Custom Deluxe tour’ of the the Ozarks
Beautiful, back country !

Love the old dodge van! Looks like beautiful country down there (pics would be even better with a 67-72 in them instead of that silly jeep

). Glad you could meet up with Larry

**dave6672** · 05-13-2021, 07:30 AM

Eric, if you find yourself in the northern part of Kentucky and need anything or want to stop for a visit, give me a yell.

**Dieselwrencher** · 05-13-2021, 08:25 AM

Very cool trip but darn it I missed you coming through the mid west! Maybe next time. I really dig the old dodge bread truck/platform truck? Pretty neat! Did other Larry give you a tour of all his hidden gems? I heard he has tunnels full of cool stuff.

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-13-2021, 09:00 AM

The solar panel incident sucks. But it seems like awesome trip. I'm having fun riding along..

toms68cst · 05-13-2021, 11:18 AM

Um, I'm no expert but I wonder if all that duct tape over the solar panel might reduce its effectiveness.

I thought about you and Leon when I was up there.
Maybe next time.
Definitely a fun time with Larry, family, friends
Lots of truck talk as well as many other common interests
And a lot of laughs
This is when we were crossing one of the rivers yesterday
We were gergeling and it smelled like steam when we came out
But we were afraid if we didn’t go for it
We would have to turn around and back track
But would run out of gas

Thanks Dave,
Kentuky is quite possible
I need to be in Nashville the weekend of 5/22-23
I’ll pm you if I’m headed your way

Not really sure where I’m going after this truck show.
Was thinking of going south into Louisiana Mississippi
But not sure about the gas shortages
Anyone down there have feedback if it is that bad ??

**cwcarpenter98** · 05-13-2021, 11:32 PM

One day, I'd love to do a trip like this. Looks like a lot of fun!

Regarding the gas shortages, I've seen several stations in my hour drive to work and back that never ran out of gas, but they have higher prices than most. One of the stations I pass was out since Tuesday, but got a shipment in today as they had a price listed on my way home. That's here in middle GA though, haven't been north of Atlanta since the weekend before the run on the pumps started.

Now that everyone has filled up, I'm hoping that there won't be another run on the pumps

**72 tigger** · 05-14-2021, 05:58 AM

Good times with Larry! Hope the weather is nice this weekend

Looks like you and Other Larry are having fun!

57taskforce · 05-15-2021, 12:44 AM

Wish I could have made that one, looks like there were a ton of awesome trucks there.

Larry and Eric went to the C10 nationals and all I got was this lousy thread

Hollar at us if you come through MS - we’ll feed you good & give you a spot in the yard to park & plug in the RV.
No problem getting gas around here, friends have said the same in LA (just the news hyping it up).
Sounds like you’re this side of MS River, but be aware a main bridge crossing it on I-40 is closed in Memphis, so avoid that cluster.

Somebody had to stay behind and keep the city running. Thank you for your service.
