2009 Dallas Autoshow 2/18-2/22

I took the kiddo last year (took the Dart train there and back, stopping at Citiplace to get linner at Grimaldi's) on a weekday and it was basically empty.

Great fun! Early this year though! The Dallas Autoshow isn't nearly as cool as the NY, Paris, Detroit or LA autoshows, but it's good to look around and stuff.

Don is sponsoring us to get in!
Meet @ Los Lupes (near Don Herring Irving) at NOON on 2/21 for lunch
Cruise down to the autoshow around 1:30

Don will get us into the autoshow, you're on the hook for lunch and parking.

Least we forget the birthcountry of our cars. The Tokyo Auto Salon.

As we have done in the past I'll sponsor an NTEC day at the Auto Show. We normally meet at the Irving Store and cruise down to the convention center. Last year seemed to work well some of us met at Los Lupes next door to the Irving store for lunch on Saturday (February 21 this year) and we left about 1:30 if I remember correctly.

although I'll be going on a weekday with a 3 year old. There's LOTs less people and he enjoys riding the DART train. I might go twice though depending on my schedule

Thanks for posting this thread so that I now know when it takes place. I'm 110% going to this year's auto show, but I'll go with my wife and baby girl....And we'll take the Dart train also. It's a very cool experience every time. Thanks for the reminder.
