In our continued effort to capture all that is cool in the minitruckin' world, we packed up our gear and took a trip north. You see, lately the CenCal (Central California) and NorCal (Northern California) scenes have been blowing up big time. With huge companies like AVS, FBI, and Slam Specialties all playing key roles in helping the minitruckin' community grow, we knew we had to get an inside look at the action. Even though it was a weeknight when we arrived, the turnout was amazing. Everyone came out to support each other and the hospitality was second to none. Check it out for yourselves! For more information, contact the companies listed.
AVS hosted a Fresno Invasion open house/cruise night--mind you, it was on a Wednesday night--and we still had more than 100 rides and hundreds of people came out from the woodwork to hang out and share some of their rides with us.
