We went to our first cruise night. It's held in a local park, nice grass and lots of shade from old oak trees. Some typical pics here:

I don't know how many cars were there. I guess about 150 or so. We had a blast. They parked us right up front at the entrance. (my apologies, we forgot the camera).

Lots of people stopped by. Comments were divided between "I remember those". "What is it", "Who made it?", "It's how old?", "Front wheel drive, really?". The one question I found strange, until I thought about it, was "Do you use it?" Duh, yeah we use it. However it is, I guess, not so strange a comment. This is an activity for people to bring out vehicles that, for most, don't get used. They were impressed that we were in it for 3 weeks for the trip to GMCMI Patterson LA. Wait till next year after we do Alaska. If we can get Chloe the cockatoo across the borders.

The organizers came by and asked us to attend the next cruise night. They really enjoyed seeing something different come out.

Suggest you contact Bob Dunahugh as he has some great disply aids that he
uses.
If you like, I will reimburse you for the expense to ship the display both
ways.
his phone: 319-521-4891
If you like, we have the plaque that we sell that people have been placing
on the coach that we selll for $55. We will send it n/c.
It is on our web site.
Be sure and tell poeple they can go to Billy Massey's site and also Craigs
List for ones for sale.
This is one way you'll maintain the value of your coaches.
If others want ,Applied GMC to help pay the fee, please contact me.

GMCMI has developed a brochure that can be used by owners who desire a
document that is suitable for distribution to those who are curious about
the GMC. The brochure is provided as an interactive pdf. It can be viewed
and edited in Adobe Reader. Your personal information about your GMC
Motorhome can be added to the “About this GMC Motorhome” column of the
brochure.

In the process of designing the brochure, it was taken into consideration
the margins required for printers. So, there is no need to reduce or adjust
the printer options.

Go to http://www.gmcmi.com/gmc-marketing-tools/, download the file, add
your personal information, print, fold and distribute.
Thank you for being a member and supporting the GMC Motorhome lifestyle.
