Hershey is in September

doc73 · 02-21-2016, 09:33 PM

Also in March. First weekend I think, is the show in oaks. It's another good one. We will be there. This weekend upcoming is the Harrisburg show at the state Farm show complex. I thought it was pretty good as well.

I will agree the MD show is a bit tight. I also felt it had good sights but was limited in variety due to the smaller venue.

doc73 · 02-21-2016, 09:36 PM

I failed to mention that we drove our Sunseeker to the MD show and parking was easy. U like Atlantic City.

We drove around the lot a few minutes looking for a spot when I noticed a guy waving to us. He directed us to a huge parking area right by the entrance We were the only one parked there. And the staff and attendees were very friendly.

Good, glad it was better than your ac debacle!

York was good. It was about same size as Md but it is all under one roof. Nothing is as big as Hershey but they are all fun to go see. I did find out today that I'm glad I did not wait for shows to buy my rig. The great show price was $3,000 more than what I paid for mine that's just on base price. I don't know what they would charge extras like dealer prep and those extras that give dealers more money. The one at show did not have the fancy rims that mine have. It made me happy about going to Ohio to get mine.

I really do not think you actually save money at most shows... Let's face it the trailers are marked up 150% then they tell you they'll knock of 50%(joking but you know what I am saying).
But I do like getting to see everything out there to get the right setup for us. I agree, Hershey puts everything to shame but they are all still nice to see.

The only problem is Hershey is same week as bike week in OC so riding wins out over just looking, at least until retirement when we may actually be ready to upgrade again.

doc73 · 02-21-2016, 10:24 PM

Agreed, gotta have priorities!

York show is actually 2 buildings with a bus that goes between the walk but it is only a short, the Oaks is all under one roof. We plan to be at the Oaks show and will meet up with Herk & Buskirk with their lovely brides, so if you see anyone roaming around that Sat with FROG rally shirts on stop us and introduce your selves.

rmac04401 · 02-22-2016, 06:56 AM

I forgot about second building and bus. Still a nice little show.

KFX450RXC · 02-22-2016, 04:50 PM

Thank you Lord. I was mistaken.

Emailed Economy RVs last night about this Friday's possible pick-up. I told him about the comments here about all the people going in and out of our new camper. I just expressed my concern but knew there wasn't much I could do except look it over at the PDI with a fine-toothed comb.

Scott from Economy called me today. He told me that wasn't my camper. I remembered him telling me they had one just like what I wanted coming from the factory but I just assumed it was the one they put in the show. He said mine is there at the dealership waiting for the new tires to arrive. Last week, they sent me pics of the 40D12 at the show because it was all set up so pictures were better for it. But mine is all locked up fresh from Indiana.

I feel so much better.

GalsofEscape · 02-23-2016, 06:38 AM

That is indeed much better. And I hope the PDI goes well.
So have you planned the first outing??

stevensmith2859 · 02-23-2016, 07:34 AM

The York, PA show in Mid March is also a good one! GREAT prices, plus its indoors at the York Fairgrounds.

You better believe it. Don't even have the camper yet but last week I booked Ocean Lakes in August and last night booked Fort Wilderness December 10-18.

Sure hope this deal doesn't fall through.

GalsofEscape · 02-23-2016, 09:59 AM

LOL. enjoy.

RV parking at the shows.

How easy is it to park a motorhome at the RV shows? Any charges for parking?

Specifically , Hershey, Harrisburg, York and Oaks.

York, Hershey, and , Harrisburg you should not have a problem parking. York and Hershey you do not have to pay for parking. Hershey just tell the gate your there for show and you will not get charged. They still charge the amusement park visitors. Don't know about Harrisburg as for as if they charge for parking. I would suggest getting there early.
