I'll be there again with my son, I have the Chrysler 300 registered for the show & we're staying in Shippensburg again. I wish that new hotel next the fairgrounds was reasonably priced, it's like $350/night & booked.

I've heard about this show for years.
In 2004, I was in Columbus for the "Year of the Charger". I counted 224 of them at the show!
I'm a west coast guy...Our biggest shows out here are maybe 400 cars a day. I was blown away at the immense size of the Columbus show.
I hear people comment about the humidity. I don't recall it being that bad when I was there.
The wife and I are looking toward going to Carlisle this year.
People have commented a LOT about the hotel situation being difficult. We just started looking at hotels.
I've never been to Pennsylvania.

Did you walk the swap meet in 2004? It was there that I saw a Charger get parted out on site!

I also saw this car there:

The car looked like it was pulled from the bottom of a lake. IT was priced at $4000 and needed everything!

I'm about 75 miles away so I'm a commuter.

I'm also still on the fence about selling the car and all the spare parts. Maybe after this year's show. Then I'll at least get three Carlisle shows out of the fortune the rust repair and repaint cost me.
