yeah the jamboree was killer. Saw some amazing "show" trucks. Saw a lot of really sweet trucks on rockwells. The parading that went on there was cool. About 75% of the parading trucks were diesels, and most of the gas trucks sounded real good.

i don't think i saw too many rangers in the show itself. saw some out in the parking lot. I'm sure alot of people saw mine, as the camper attracted many.
would be cool to see a lot of rangers in one area, with all the other trucks surrounding us.

I saw 2-3 rangers in the show.

I saw a 2001ish one with a superlift and 33x12.5's I told him about the site. The other ones were older. I saw a Gen1 Ranger that was huge on like 40's.
