“Every year is another opportunity for us to showcase the best there is in cars, trucks, and technology,” said Pam Crail. “We want to allow our attendees to experience the vehicles. This year, along with our traditional ride & drives, where guests can get behind the wheel and take the cars for a spin, we will also be putting a new twist on the ride & drives with Tantrum Monster Truck Ride & Drive. Our goal is to continue to add new and exciting elements to enjoy, whether it’s your first year to attend the show or your fifty first.”

This year’s show will feature the regional debut of the 2020 Titan XD. Additionally, multiple exhibits will boast exotic dream cars, from the McLaren to the Lamborghini to the Ferrari. Hands-on exhibits and demonstrations will be a new addition, highlighting Faye Hadley, one of the stars of All Girls Garage on MotorTrend TV. Her local company, Pistons & Pixiedust, teaches women about automotive basics, repair, welding, and more. She and her team will be onsite with live demos and educational sessions for visitors.

The Center Stage will provide entertainment from local bands, including Gunpowder Soup, Cactus Country, Ben Griffith, the Dennis Dietz Duo, The Buddy System and more.

In addition to all of the latest and greatest cars and trucks from a variety of manufacturers, the Show will also boast a bigger breed, with multiple monster trucks on site. The Raminator will make a great stop for photos, as will the famed King Krunch. Additionally, guests can take a spin in the Tantrum Monster Truck Ride, seating 8-10 people and providing a ride unlike anything ever experienced before.

There will be something for everyone to enjoy, including the Kid Zone, with a Power Wheels track, mini-sized cars, and more. Special to Saturday, five high school band drumlines will be competing in the inaugural Drumline Duel at 2:00 p.m. Ride & Drives will include Chrysler, Jeep, Ram, Fiat, Ford, Toyota, and Chevrolet. Ride & Drive times are 2 p.m. until dark each day.
