It is all good - especially when this lady likes beer!

No need to go for a beer, we keep plenty in the shop fridge

GerhardH · 07-22-2019, 04:46 PM

Ultra? Sounds strong

GerhardH · 07-22-2019, 05:00 PM

Amtrak App runs well and the dollars in the pocket goes down

I think you may be disappointed in American beer.

So sorry that you have to cancel the meeting. Hope to see you sometime. Take Care Keith.

GerhardH · 10-17-2019, 03:36 PM

Au revoir Wisconsin, Indiana again to see Michigan.
Saw not even one historic truck last time.

72c20customcamper · 10-17-2019, 04:44 PM

Have to commend you on using the train system . Not many people do vacations with them anymore. Always a rush to get to the destination. But like motorcycle trips the destination most times is secondary to the ride. Saw this and thought of our conversation the other night.

jeffg1010 · 07-22-2019, 10:39 AM

Welcome Gerhard. What part of Germany? I will be heading to Germany for Oktoberfest from 9/13-9/26 while you are here in the US. Enjoy.

Your itinerary skipped the southeast!

The C10 Nationals are 9/27-9/28 in Maggie Valley, NC. That would've been a great show to attend for a European C10 fan. I am surprised nobody mentioned them.

Are you going to C10's in the Park in Texas 9/20-9/21!

GerhardH · 09-17-2019, 08:20 PM

Hi Jeff what about the Octoberfest? Do you enjoy it ? Already headache?

GerhardH · 07-27-2019, 04:05 PM

Dear Lady, Gents new question:
In which state to buy a original stetson and which one. Is 10X the right one?
I like this one but no experience.

We can run by Boot Town here in Fort Worth, I could use a new pair of boots and maybe a nice hat too.

GerhardH · 07-29-2019, 09:54 AM

What a offer- Agreed!!!!!@

GerhardH · 07-29-2019, 10:15 AM

Seems disappeared

cornerstone · 07-30-2019, 10:08 AM

That store location closed. There are several other stores available. You might enjoy going to the Ft Worth Stockyards, maybe take in a quick rodeo at Billy Bobs Texas?

weq92f · 07-30-2019, 12:05 PM

Hey Cornerstone,

Are you attending Goodguys during that weekend with your truck?

You might consider it as it really is a unique experience to be able to drive into the show in a C10 ( or any classic ), park and cruise through the show and up on the track at the end. This would be something that GerhardH would truly not have had the opportunity to experience.

Sunday isn't the best for Classics only ( All American Sunday ), but it's still the best way to attend a car show!

Could be fun , Could be a serial killer ? Drug mule ? traveling by bus ? Who does this ? Are you all nuts ?

Stetson website says they have an outlet store in MO & in Texas (northeast of Dallas) at
721 Marion Dr.
Garland, TX 75042
972-494-0337
I've never been there, but may be worth a shot.

GerhardH · 07-31-2019, 03:51 PM

Right, but if I can go with an true American in Ft Worth in the shop nothing can beat this

**DeadheadNM** · 07-27-2019, 04:18 PM

I’d say on the Texas leg of your trip.

GerhardH · 07-27-2019, 04:23 PM

Aha

44th Miss Inf · 07-27-2019, 07:04 PM

Any good western store will be able to help.
One of the largest selections I've ever seen is at Bear Creek Western Store about an hour above New Orleans in Montpelier, LA. Open 7 days a week, very knowledgeable staff and very good prices (actually better than most of the bigger "chain" stores. I've been dealing with them for 30 plus years.

If I'm not mistaken a 10x is pure beaver felt. That's what my Resistol is
