I went to the Tampa show today. Enjoyed it. Never been to one this large before.
Got to see a ton of different brands and models. Watched the crowd and talked to other customers. Got questions answered about the brand from the manufacturer or rep/dealer that I could not find on-line.
Got to parking lot around 9am. Drove right in after paying $6 to park. I was not sure they were charging, but was ready if they did. Paid $6 to get in. $10 for sausage and onion roll plus a soda. Cost me $20 in gas to get there and back (1.5-2 hrs away).
So for $42, I had a me day. Took my time. Looked at what I wanted. Asked questions I wanted. Got a little sun.
Beats reading the ad's for all the brands, and not knowing answers you want, and it was close.
To each their own.
Weather tomorrow is suppose to be bad. Heard a few dealer reps say they are moving their rigs due to mud expectations.
