I'd hate to try and clean up a semi truck! My camera is a Sony F282. It's about ten years old already, so it's old technology, but it still takes great photos. Thanks for the comments.

Re: Waupun Truck-N-Show

Awesome photos Nathan. I wanted to go but my wife didn't, should have said something we could have car pooled.

Re: Waupun Truck-N-Show

You're welcome guys.

Jimmy, this was the first semi truck I've ever been too. It was pretty cool. I went on Friday, but there were still trucks arriving when I left about 6pm. Saturday would have been a better day to see everything, and they did a night time light show / parade Friday and Saturday evening. That would have been neat to see, but it didn't start until 9pm, and it was about a 2 hour drive home for me. I didn't know you were thinking about going! I wasn't sure if I was going to myself. Then on a whim, thought what the heck. Maybe next year we could check it out!

Re: Waupun Truck-N-Show

There are some really nice rigs. I went to the truck show at Iowa 80 truck stop in Walcott,Ia this year and last year. The light shows are the best part in my opinion. Just amazing how much work time and money go into these trucks.I recognize several truck that were at the show in Walcott.
There is one truck I see that is especially cool to me. This truck was featured in a music video by Leland Martin. He sings alot of trucking type songs. The video was filmed at the Walcott truck stop. The title of the song is "Working Class"

I almost wanted to buy the tickets just to get a ride in his truck, but the parade didn't start until 9pm, and I had a 2 hour drive home, so I passed. Would have been cool. His truck being a twin stick and all.

Re: Waupun Truck-N-Show

Excellent pictures Nathan! It is kind of obvious where your brand loyalty lies.
