Clubs are more about people than rides. In St. Louis, there are two main ones,
Beyond Reality and Groundbound, sponsored by Fantasy Coachworks and Showcase. I
get my stuff at Showcase, can't stand Fantasy, but I'm joining BR. Groundbound
has MUCH nicer rides, but BR is active, with good guys who help eachother out a
lot. If you want to join a club to have a big ugly sticker on the back that
somehow means that your truck is nicer than it really is, go for it. If you want
to have fun, meet people, and exhange information and help, then the quailty of
the rides in a club is unimportant.
