JensenPark Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Where in the world is Waldo. And Oskosh for that matter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erco Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Well, Waldo is about 20 miles WSW of Sheboygan Wisconsin, and Oshkosh is the center of the aviation universe, but can also be found around 45 miles NW of Waldo, as the crow flies, on the shores of picturesque Lake Winnebago.

Blairgowrie Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I could be talked in to a visit to Oshkosh next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erco Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 Indeed Sid, those trucks are built in Oshkosh, also made there are the Oshkosh B'Gosh clothes (at least, the headquarters are there) and Oshkosh is also the home of Basler Aero, the guys who make the BT67D, ie, the stretched turboprop version of the DC-3/C-47.

T_O_A_D Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I had plans of going this year till I lost my job back at Christmas, and took a $16,000 paycut, two kids in college, and left paying a $560.00 truck payment the Company was doing for me. But now that I'm out of management after 15 years and back to being a Technician, I am a whole lot happier, and its like a working Vacation compared. Guess what you can't get rid of a 2007 Z71 Silverado Crew cab now days. If I can get things turned around I would love to go next year for sure.

T_O_A_D Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Well I live near Springfield Mo. on I-44 and if we were to camp, and car pool, from here, I can supply a truck and some camping equipment, I no longer have a tent, but most everything else. Well I have a truck as long as I keep making the payments. 5 guys could fit 4 comfortably. I hardly drive it, and it has just barley 10K on it, and will have barley more than then by then too. Should be quite dependable, and it avrages around 17 mpg per tank, highway/city combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
