I wondered about this too cause my wife did this for us this year for my son and I for Christmas. I remember seeing the cars parked upfront in the venue but wondered about any other perks or goodies.Visit my sons blog:

Somebody was complaining about it on another thread.......personally, since they can't seem to nail down the venue for Thursday, I'd pass..........Ed, Mary, & 'Earl'

I did it last year but I don't think it would be fair to base a decision on that since it was Family Events. The one this year might be different. The good points were that I got to see the BlaspHEMI as soon as it arrived, met David, and got up close parking 3 out of 7 stops. The bad points were they ran out of food at the VIP BBQ, I missed all my friends because I stayed at the host hotels, and didn't get good parking at 4 out of 7 stops. Definitely not worth 3 bills to me.

I have seen several posts saying it wasnt worth the money for the reasons listed above. Better to hang with the rest of the crowd and keep the extra cash for me. Just my $.02 on it.Hauling ass & sucking gas are the best uses for a truck.Comment

Ditto for me. I have known people for years that know sponsors that have let them park beside their displays. And we would rather be with our PT friends, BS or not than with a crowd where we do not know anyone.

The one benefit I see is if you were running late one day and needed to get the stamp or if it is pouring down rain. If so then I can load up a few people in my car and drive them to the front.Visit my sons blog:

did you have to stay at the host hotels? in my 6 yrs i've never stayed at a host hotel as i like to get out and see the sights in the area before i hit the hotel. the parking may solve some issues i had in the past of getting to the venue in just the knick of time to get my card stampedComment

Call me crazy (enough already!!) but I have actually thought about just 'shadowing' the tour, not paying the fee, largely taking the route and parking with the locals. Why, because since 2007, I have paid the fee, largely took the route and parked with locals AND did not get the swag that I assumed the fee would provide me (e.g., magnets, shirts, etc.). Furthermore, the long haul 'gift' has been quite lame these last few years. One thing that has gotten better each year is you all letting me cruise with you. And so far, you haven't charged me a feea.k.a. - arrowhead from joysey
