Finally got a tow car for OCF

Post by Bmettli » Mon Jan 02, 2023 10:04 am

Our family goes decked out for OCF every year and every year we say we need to bring the T up to participate. It was either we didn’t have a modern car that could tow or the kids were too small to handle both them and a car at the show. Today we traded in one of the minivans for the Durango with tow package at 7,500 pounds. See you at OCF this year!

I drove modern the first time I went, and I thought "This is so great, I have to bring an old car." So that's what I've done for every OCF since. I'll see you in September.

You need one of those dog cages you put on the running board. Put the kids in there.

Good to hear. Quite an experience driving at OCF. I like to see the young ones involved.
