Vendors at Goshen

This being our first International FROG rally we are curious as to what vendors and suppliers we might expect to see.

If it's like last year don't expect camping world by any means.

Mattress
Entertainment systems
Tires n wheels
Power cords
Lippert items.
Toilet Chem dispenser

And a few others

I believe that Progressive Industries are planning to have a rep and installer for their electrical management systems and surge protectors. Also think that Andersen hitches will be represented.

We're working right now on our vendor reservations, seminar schedule, parking (don't ask, but no there are unfortunately NOT 460 sewer sites), factory tours, and more. Monday is a meeting with service reps from all of the divisions plus a lot of the component suppliers who will be on site for service. Registrations continue to come in (five more yesterday).

Other than that, things are fairly quiet, except for the three trips we're working on for late September and October.

Is there a FROG trip in September? We are unable to make the August event.

Was Progressive at the first rally -- I wasn't? Last year Surge Guard was at the rally and that's why I went with them

Anybody going to be there selling equalizer hitches? Just today DW was asking if we should change to the hitch her BIL has because "he doesn't have sway problems".

Note: For reference, he has an Equalizer, I have the Reese WDH and a single antisway bar. I've recently purchased a second antisway to have 2 bars, but haven't actually run with them yet. His wildwood is also about 1000 lbs heavier than my Flagstaff.

I convinced her to at least wait until Goshen because "I hear dem prices be gut and cheap dere at the rally." This way, I'll at least get a chance to see how much of a difference the second anti sway bar makes. (I'm assuming a lot)

Make sure you tighten them both down until they make considerable noise when you turn in either direction. Used 2 for years with good results.

I always did the one that way, no reason why I wouldn't do both.

Ok, good. As much as I'll acknowledge the equalizer is supposed to be the better hitch, it's not something I'm looking to expense just yet.
