    Definitely a must attend. It's three days and one big *** stadium parking lot. Always fun and where we the lifters always induct our new members. If you've never been it's worth it and free. I think they make you pay for parking now though.

    It's almost an understatement to call it a "swap meet"...3 days, all automotive related merchandise, on a m***ive scale. Bring your checkbook....

    The Big 3 Auto Parts Exchange is the bigger than Pomona, Turlock, etc. Only other in the West that is bigger is the Portland Swap. Get there Friday with a truck/trailer and lots of cash-good walking shoes too.

    It's no good stay home! Besides no one goes there anymore, it's too crowded!!
    Dude, I can't believe you live in Cali and haven't been there yet, It's worth the trip from here!!

    Dumb questain, I might be going out there around that time and would like to check it out but I'll have a duelly and 24' trailer (empty for the trip home, dangerous at swap meets!), will parking be an issue for me? I ***ume they will have truck and trailer parking but I've traveled to shows before that didn't, ****s to park 3 miles away.

    It's in the stadium parking lot and there's plenty of room on the east side of the stadium for parking.
