Tampa show

[jetlag]

Spent the day at the show yesterday, very crowed considering it was the first day. Comfortable temperatures, around 60F and partially cloudy. Got to see the new Brinkley's. They had a big add touting their new paint option. If I remember correctly, it was close to 20K. We spent some time at the Jayco booth, and they had a large display of Eagles, Northpoints and Pinnacles. My bride has fallen in love with Mobile Suites this time around and spent time at their display. I would love to go back but we are staying at Champions Run in Ocala and that is a good 90 minutes from the show. I75 is never pleasant to be on for too long.

Just remembered, the Jayco 5th wheels have a new type of water filtration system, can't remember the name, but it has 3 canister type filters attached to the wall in the basement, and I did not see the 5Gal jug anywhere. For those of you that disliked the system, it appears to be gone.

I read where attendance was actually not bad but not what it’s been in years past. Think they said something like a 2% drop overall.

Lol, I wouldn't know, but it was nicely crowded. I am sure they are happy with attendance

Brinkley

We were there for 2 days, and the crowds in the Brinkley display were the largest we saw. We were standing with a KZ salesman across the way, watching the chaos at Brinkley. They are winning the P.R. wars this year.

They deserve it as they build great campers
