Well, 20 degrees is ok, cause I got a heater, 95 isn't cause I don't have an AC.. LOL

The whole insurance verification thing is currently a problem too.

How does 1075 have a wrecker I know the last wrecker thread he said he was gonna have to get one of these? How can you put a fire out with a wrecker anyway?? LOLOL

Hey Jeff if you decide to go I should be able to cover you on my fleet coverage.

I'm not too sure if I can make it or not, we have an Ice Cream festival here in Tuttle on the 4th with a parade as well.

I think everyone needs at least one wrecker. Pretty cool for parades, towing other vehicles, and general crane/winch use. Did you get everything running on yours okay?

Tackettr has been in contact with the organizers and has the paperwork. He will need a copy of your insurance verification.

If we can get 20 guys and 13 trucks to meet in the middle of December, when the tempature was 20 degrees, we should be able to get that many in July.

Currently we only have 3 trucks signed up.

What time does it start?

We are running both of our trucks and a 105 for the American Legion in Crescent on the 4th mid day...

The first float/entry line up at 0800 and leaves the UCO Campus at 0845. They should reach downtown Edmond at 0900. I would say the parade lasts 2 hrs. So we should be done by 1100.

Here are the rules. Please pay attention to #7. No object are to be thrown from the trucks (no candy....

)

Hope you can join us.

Sounds like it will be a good parade but I will be in Crescent during that time... IM me if something else in the area comes up. Any excuse to play with the toy truck...

Thanks,
Andy.
