The same things over and over again do hurt shows. I am a big believer in fixing up implements but seem to be in a small minority in feeling that way. I don't get so upset about absentee owners as many have jobs they have to go to and it is not always possible to get a week off come show time. The elitism I get upset about is being a fellow exhibitor and being snubbed by the established exhibitors. People could rework their priorities about many things including vehicles but many are not like those here on this board in terms of being self reliant with older vehicles that may need maintenance from time to time. I still think that for many money is a killer even though they have a desire. Many "good" jobs only pay for the basics anymore. As I said in another recent thread the number of new car dealers is down from where it was a generation and being replaced with 5,000 dollar or less lots. Go into a grocery store and look how big the meat department is versus a generation ago. Most of the store is cheaper canned products by space allotment.
