Bloomsburg< PA is about 1 hour south of the Scranton-Wilkes-Barre area. From
Syracuse you would take I81 South to I80 West. They host one of the larger
truck shows on the east coast. Mostly 4x4 but I've seen a few sport trucks in
the past few years. Monster truck races, tough truck races, last year I think
about 20, 000 trucks were entered in the show. It is usually towards the last
weekend of July i think. I've always gone when visiting my family (my home town
in about 3 miles away).
The 1988 show is what got me interested in trucks in the first place. My
grandpap took me to the show that year and then got me a subrscription to 4
Wheeler magazine. Don't think he knew what he was starting:)
It is a great show though, and it definitely needs more Daks. I counted 6 last
year, and only one was a V6.
But I will definitely be going to that one :)
