North American Auto Show
 
I'm heading to the North American International Auto Show in Detroit this Friday. This will be the 3rd one that I've attended since relocating here and it should be interesting to see how the mood compares with last year. I suspect will be signifcantly better. Particularly looking forward to seeing the new Mustangs.

I'll be dragging the family out to the show on Wednesday, bright and early. Hope to be there shortly after the doors open.

Yeah, last year was sad. Since 1998 I've been talking about how great the show was to my father. Then last year he came out to see for himself... What a dissapointment I thought. He thought it was great, but he had never been before.

Having had the prior year to compare I agree last year was not as nice...that is outside of the Ford display. The GM and Chrysler displays were downright depressing. The quality of vehicles was a stark contrast between Ford and them as well and just the whole mood. Walking through the Ford displays you just felt a great deal of energy and much to be excited about. Walking through GM and Chrysler they just didn't have the quality product and you just had this sense things were going to get much worse before they got any better (and that's exactly what happened).

That show will be coming to Philadelphia soon. Our older son is 14yo, and he said that he wants to go. (good boy!)

So did you take any pics?

I didn't take any from last year, but will take a camera with me when I go Friday.

On the news today, I heard that 15,000 more people attended over the weekend (Sat & Sun) than last year's frist weekend! Total numbers were over 180,000!

I'll be heading out to the show in the morn'. Planning on arriving soon after the doors open. I hear lots of good things about this years show. Looking forward to be pleased.

Just came back from the NAIAS. It was good. Here are a few pics that I think are appropriate for this forum.
