Default I got railroaded

Glad to announce there will a 13th annual Chevelle and ElCamino show and shine at Wilsonville Chevrolet this year. show went well last year to continue another year. I missed last months meeting when it was decided to have it. But while I was gone a motion was passed making me the show chairmen. So if you are inclined come join us. More awards will be handed out this year, free food and lots of fun. I was involved a lot with last years show, so it won change my part much.

12 annual show link below.

Ray, I'm pretty sure I will not make it, I just did the calulation and 2,360 miles divided by 8 mpg times avg $3.50 gallon comes to $1,045 for gas one way plus the 43 hours of driving avg 60 MPH one way. HA

Good luck

I hear you, that was my issue on attending the NOCC show last year. Very long drive there and back.

I am only a few miles south of Ric and I may get about double his gas milage, but that is still a chunk of change. And usually when I travel, I drive my car and someone else drives my van. So it would probably be about the same driving costs with 2 vehicles. But, I may just have to see where it fits in to come, without my car. Maybe driving the little 40mpg car.
