Atlanta Auto Show

I'm planning on driving down from Clt to the show, and was wondering if anyone else planned on being there?

https://goautoshow.com/ (use Chrome, it doesn't work right under Edge or IE)

I have free tickets through the Chevy "Truck Legacy" program (for owners that have Chevy Trucks with more than 100,000miles, I've owned 3) but not sure if I can go yet because there is also a big woodworkers show the same weekend I planned to go to.

I should add, the last time I went was 2012 to see the 86. I was a little disappointed in the show as a whole. It wasn't nearly as big as I expected it to be. There was a good representation of manufacturers but you could tell it was a "B" show for them. Toyota/Scion didn't even bother to bring the FRS, although Subaru had the BRZ.

The entire show fit into one exhibit hall and I went through the entire thing in less than a couple of hours, 3 at most.

I plan on driving down in the morning, seeing the show, taking a nap, then back to charlotte. Think I'll try to get down there on wednesday the 20th, for the first day.

Sounds like a plan, hope you enjoy it. If I go, I won't be able to go until the weekend.
