The Carlisle Truck Nationals: August 6 – 8 at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds

Friday, July 30, 2010

The Carlisle Truck Nationals (August 6 – 8 at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds) is an event that celebrates trucks from all aspects of the collector, off-road, classic and high-performance truck world with almost 2,000 trucks covering the 102-acre Carlisle PA Fairgrounds. The Manufacturers Midway at the Carlisle Truck Nationals is the premier vending and buying area at the event, featuring some of the biggest names in the aftermarket truck industry including 4 Wheel Parts, A&A Auto Parts On-Site Installations, BedRug, Cervini's Auto Design, Extang, Liberator Performance, Magnaflow Performance Exhaust, Skyjacker and many others. This year joining that list of major players on the midway is Ford Motor Company.

The Ford Truck Tour presented by Ford Motor Company, will give attendees of the Carlisle Truck Nationals the opportunity to experience Ford’s game-changing 2011 Super Duty trucks. Built Ford Tough is more than just a slogan --- It’s Ford’s commitment to build the absolute best trucks: the strongest, the most capable, and the most reliable. Tom Suttles, East Market Retail Marketing Manager for Ford explained why Ford is once again partnering with Carlisle Events. "Whether it is the Ford Nationals or the Truck Nationals, the crowds at Carlisle Events are among the most loyal and knowledgeable vehicle enthusiasts in the country.” Suttles continued, “This year, the new Ford Super Duty Tour will visit the Truck Nationals to showcase the toughest and hardest working trucks in America and we'd like to invite everyone to stop by, say hello, and see these great new trucks firsthand.” See the newly crafted 2011 Super Duty® and more at the Ford Truck Tour on the Manufacturers Midway at the Carlisle Truck Nationals.

In addition to the great buying opportunities and interactive displays on the Manufacturers Midway, the Carlisle Truck Nationals will be packed with entertainment including monster truck shows and rides, Megasaurus (the three story tall, car eating, fire breathing robot dinosaur), a gathering of Vietnam Gun Trucks and other military vehicles on Saturday, a vintage truck display from the Antique Truck Historical Society and much more.
