Diesel Tech session

Where would you suggest for the next Diesel Tech Session?

Note:
I may be doing one in the Detroit area over this winter.





Thank you.

Central East coast would be great! Shoot, we also have "Smokin' in the Smokies" - a huge camp out / Diesel event in Gatlinburg, TN in the spring. It would be cool to have a Benz section to go along with the trucks.

I vote for the Houston, TX area - Truly wonderful weather in the winter, compared to our northern friends!

And a drive through the Blue Ridge Parkway. A bunch of Porsche guys just did that. I have been thinking about organizing a run to the Parkway anyways.

Me to.

I could find a number of really nice places here in central Indiana, but I would go to Cincinnati, Detroit , Nashville, Memphis, Green Bay or Atlanta. Would have to think twice about Vancouver, BC though I know it is a nice place.
