Cool info and pics. Glad you posted that. On a personal exciting note, I may be going to the Kansas City Auto show. I know it's not the biggest by far, but it'll be the first auto show I've been to, and it'll be a lot of fun. I don't know for sure if I'm going or not yet, but if I do, I'll bring back lots of pictures.

Sweet, my relatives always go and I was hoping I would this year too, plus it's only 2 hours away.  But I doubt I will, when is it though?

Have a good time, and see if you can get a digital camera to use there.

True. My schedule for March and April is... well, I'm basically entirely busy until the end of May, but I'm still hoping I'll get to go to the Kansas City show. If I get to go, I'll tell you beforehand.

thewizard, if you can even spare an hour for the show, I'd do it. Even a fairly small show is still excellent.

It's not finding an hour that's a problem, it's that it's about 8-9 hours away from here, and I'd have to make it a two day trip, basically. I hope I can get it done, and if there's any time at all, I'll jump in my car and go, but I really don't know yet.

8-9 hours? Ouch, I can see why that may not fit into your schedule.

Maybe you could fly?

In 8-9 hours, you could get on a plane and go to a bigger auto show. Detroit, Chicago, New York, or even DC.

How much do those cost?  Not including the cost of flying, that'd be a lot more expensive wouldn't it?  KC is $9 to get in.

Okay, NY is only $12 so nevermind, but you'd still have to buy the plane ticket.

The DC show was $10 (or $8 with a coupon they gave out at McDonald's).

According to their websites, the Detroit and NY shows are $12.

Besides iffy, yes I think so.  Kansas City is only about 1.5-2 hours from me though.
