I just bought a house in Greeneville so not too far from some of you..... Looking forward to moving in!

Hey guys looking at getting a meet and greet together. Nothing crazy family friendly. Something like a park or something like a cookout, cruise or whatever. Looking at July maybe I know that Lebanon tn has a pull end of that month I believe. What do y'all think.

cbf9703 · Feb 29, 2016

There are plenty of good parks, but the pavilions tend to get reserved early.

There's plenty of water around if you're looking at warm weather... park with water access for kids might an idea if it's family event before a pull.

Might be nice to do something around the first week of August, but Lebanon is about 225 miles from me and I don't think I could venture out that far around that time.

If someone planned something closer to the eastern side of the state, like Knoxville or Tri-Cities area I would be willing to explore options!

Thanks for the input so far still in the planning stages got a buddy helping me. Truckman it could be closer to you no telling yet.

I'd rather do something outside TDA...

I understand you too. I'm just going to hit the dyno if they can pull it off. The meet I'm putting together is completely free lance from clubs. Might talk to some people I know that own shops about maybe getting in on it. Just to help get things together and such.

I have been looking for a more complete list of diesel events instead of jumping around on 4 sites to find everything. I know I heard something about TS I believe not going to be happening this year. Just want to try my best to bring people together and have some fun in the process.

TS is back on after Dennis's meltdown.

I'm all for events and getting good people together, especially while at them. Beans usually does a fall dyno day and they've done some spring ones too... it's about as central in the state as you're going to get- only about 25 minutes from the geographic center. Lol. Swamps is easier access on interstates, but they don't have the space for parking or anyone with the time to coordinate an event last time I checked.

I think the bigger issue is trying to figure out where most people would be coming from, West, middle, or East, and plan around an event in that area because as we all know it's a long way to drive across.

Nothing against CJ or Elizabeth, but they tend to keep a younger, more bro crowd than I'm interested in hanging around with and TDA is a business venture, not just diesel enthusiasts.

Yea beans isn't far from me and not missing it this time aroind. Swamps is a easier access location but definitely no room. I'm still working to see who and where they will be coming from. Plus the guy that was going to help kinda crapped out on me. I have a few feelers out to see. I'm with you I'm not into the bro crowd. Not to roast but I like to meet people like me that pay for there own. Not straight out of high schoolwith a king ranch Denali lifted on 38s and working part time at autozone.
lol sorry I'm a diesel guy yea powerstroke is my thing but I'm all for diesels no matter the make even though yes I bust my buddies and friends but only people I know. All diesel have there factory issues and fall backs but it's a lifestyle.
