It may not have been the biggest, but I don't think the first fest will ever be topped. It was undeniably awesome. It was probably the most stressful for the moderators because they were "flying by the seat of their pants" so to speak, but the camaraderie and participation was the best I've seen at any of the events (I haven't been to all of them, but I've been to a few--most recently Texas).

And...when you think about that first year, there was only one model year of 5th Gens out (less than one full year of production)....THAT was a truly amazing turn out, and the basis for the success of the next few years!!!
