Anyone have any plans on going this year? If so I'll see ya there.

Turnout of about 3000 trucks and more.

July 13-15

Here is some video of previous years

Last year wasn't that great as the show got rescheduled to a month later due to flooding that occured 2 weeks before that actual date. Wasn't as big of a turnout. Still had fun though.

I just wanted to know who to look for.
I'll be driving my old 75 look for the funky hood and roof KCs. (If I don't rip the top off while I'm up there.)

thats the same weekend as the summer crawl and weroc event at rasush creek...im preety sure there are more people going to that...hit up skyyk5 i think he said he was going to bloomsberg...
 
I will probably make a day trip. Won't have the truck anywhere near ready for that. Hopefully be driving by Carlisle this year.
 
Any one else???

For as many blazers that show I can't believe that there aren't more people from this site.
 
I was going to go to the show last year until it got rescheduled. This year I am too far away.
 
I have been to the bloomsburg show in the past, I would rather go wheeling now. Walking around looking at the same trucks year after year and getting sun-burnt gets old. You can go to the truck show at Carlisle and see most of the same trucks as whats at Bloomsburg.

You should come to the event at Rausch. You will make some much better memories. isn't the whole point of having a big lifted 4x4 to actually use the 4 wheel drive?

Why would you do a thing like that??

Dont they do mud drags and monster trucks and stuff?
 
I've never been to bloomsburg, I've been working weekends for the last few years. I'm planning on going this year.

I dont have a truck ready for rausch, would they allow me to walk around on foot?

yes, but you don't get to drive the monster truck and chances are you are not going to compete in the mud drags or tough truck. anyone can compete in the burn out competition but in the end its just you roasting your expensive tires and going nowhere in front of a crowd.

I didn't say it wasn't entertaining to go but since there is a 4 wheeling event on the same dates I'll be going to that.

If you have something 4 wheel drive bring it to Rausch. they have a lot of easy beginner trails. We drove FOR MUD's truck and trailer into the middle of the park last time. you can have a lot of fun in a stock truck. If you go to Bloomsburg with your stock truck you are gonna leave it in the parking lot while you LOOK at other guys trucks.

Alot of people that have stock trucks take them into the show. Its not just for heavily modified rigs.
 
OK I'll rephrase that. given a choice would you rather go wheeling or look at trucks that are parked? Bloomsburg is fun but this year there is another event that is more interactive.
 
i cant go to this either now. sounds of the under ground is thet weekend. damit
 
I'm going...with 20 others (10 other trucks...look for NY plates). I'll be driving my '91 Blazer w/ 6" lift...otherwise stock...its white and blue... Cant miss the '89 Dually Crew cab on 36s in our group....two-tone grey...closest thing in our group to a show truck but he uses it in sand drags and tractor pulls.

Otherwise...mainly a bunch of daily drivers but its a good time to look around, hang out with friends, drink beer. Theres usually a bunch of true four wheelers in the "show" along with the majority of daily drivers and show trucks...
